Moura Lympany
Pianist Moura Lympany has travelled all over the world. But the life of an international artist today is very different to what it was just after the war, when Moura Lympany became the first western pianist to visit Russia. She talks to Joan
Bakewell about those exciting days, with music by Rachmaninov, Mozart and Turina.

Architects
With Peggy Reynolds.
Frank Matcham designed over 150 theatres across the British Isles. He sometimes travelled by train, but mostly he preferred sitting in the back of his new Daimler, top hat and fur coat at the ready and cigar in hand. Matcham knew how to put on a good show, and his gold and white velvet plush, the mirrors and the polished brass of his theatres were enjoyed by the audiences as much as what they saw on stage. Including excerpts from:
Leon Jessel Parade of the Tin
Soldiers
Paul Uncke Glow-Worm Idyll New London Orchestra, conductor Ronald Corp
Elgar Chanson de Matin; Chanson de Nuit
Leland Chen (violin), John Lenehan (piano)

The First World War marks a great divide in the history of the West. Old certainties and traditions that had carried society through the tumultuous years of the 19th century were swept away. lain Burnside traces these changes in songs written before and after the Great War.

Seamus Heaney at 60
Five programmes celebrating and reassessing the poetry of Seamus Heaney in the week of his 60th birthday.
2: Whatever You Say, Say Nothing
Heaney has faced a double criticism: on the one hand, for being unpolitical, appearing to remain detached from "the situation" in Northern Ireland; and yet on the other for coming too close in some poems to offering a mythological justification for violence. This programme explores the relationship between Heaney's work and the troubled history of Northern Ireland during the last 30 years.

Two motets by Hungarian composer, Zoltan Kodaly , plus his Missa
Brevis, written while the composer hid in the cellar of a Budapest convent during the darkest days of the Second World War.

Plus a review of tonight's opening of Trevor Nunn 's production of Candide, adapted from Voltaire with music by Bernstein. Producer Lawrence Pollard
