In his last year, the great Irish dramatist Sean O'Casey was recorded by his wife Eileen as he talked, remembered and, above all, sang. Music meant a great deal to a man brought up in the tradition of melodrama and music hall, and his plays are full of it. Ann Mann explores the music of O'Casey with his children Shivaun and Breon, Professor Katherine Worth, actor Niall Buggy, composer Mark-Anthony Turnage and librettist Amanda Holden, who are making an opera out of O'Casey's play The Silver Tassie and the previously unbroadcast tapes. Singer Lynda Richardson. Accordionist Barry Dix. Pianist Simon Joly. Piper Tommy Sands. Producer Piers Plowright

Stephen Mulrine 's dramatisation of Nikolai Leskov 's novel, with Blythe Duff as Katerina and James
MacPherson as Sergei.
In the provincial Russia of the tsars, Katerina Izmailova is bored. With her husband away and with no children to care for, she has nothing to do but "trim the icon lamps and listen to the sound of her own footsteps."
Meanwhile, in the barn, Sergei - the tall and handsome bailiff of the farm
- directs the packing of the grain.

Eight programmes in which Richard Widdess explores the wide range of traditional music of faith and festival on the Indian subcontinent.
1: The Offering of Sound
Bells, conch shells, trumpets, oboes. cymbals and drums are used in the rituals of Hindu and Buddhist temples, as they were in the court music of the Muslim moguls, as a way of expressing the power of God and as an echo of the ethereal unheard sound anahata nada, which suffuses the universe.
