In the second programme of the nine-part series exploring violin music with some of the finest players Andrew Manze looks at possibly the most famous violinist of the 20th century, the legendary Jascha Heifetz. The programme features a performance of Franck's Violin Sonata from Heifetz's last concert, and some shorter pieces, including some of Paganini's Caprices and part of Mozart's Haffner Serenade.

Presented by Sean Rafferty, including a portrait of singer, actress and Kurt Weill muse Lotte Lenya. Music includes at 5.30 Johann Strauss (son)'s Overture: Die Fledermaus: at 5.40 Joaquin Turina's Piano Trio No 2 played by the Beaux Arts Trio; and at 6.40 Christoph Forster's Horn Concerto in E flat played by Barry Tuckwell with the Academy of St Martin in the Fields under Neville Marriner.

As a prelude to Radio 3's Kurt Weill Weekend, John McGlinn conducts the BBC Singers and the BBC Concert Orchestra in a production of Weill's 1943 musical One Touch of Venus, a humorous indictment of the suburban American Dream.

The show was the composer's greatest commercial success, although nowadays most of the score is only known to aficionados. This production features previously neglected numbers.

Laura Cumming explores one of the most exciting periods of art history as the exhibition 1900: Art at the Crossroads opens at the Royal Academy. One hundred years later, the work of many now less well known artists is being reassessed alongside established masters. What can a cross-section of the art of a single year reveal about the directions art was to take in the century following? Plus a review of Three Seasons, the first American film to be shot in Vietnam since the war, which explores a country in transition between traditional ways of life and the modern values of westernisation and progress.

Fiona Talkington charts the road to fame of Quebec's La Bottine Souriante, appearing in Glasgow and London this weekend.
