Significant Others - Booker Ervin
Jez Nelson profiles the often overlooked tenor saxophonist whose premature death in 1970 robbed jazz of one of its most distinctive voices. A favourite sideman of Charles Mingus in the early 1960s, Ervin went on to form one of contemporary jazz's great quartets and recorded a series of albums including The Freedom Book and The Space Book. The show features contributions from bassist
Richard Davis and critic Stanley Crouch.

CosiFanTutte
Matthew Warchus 's new production for English National Opera features a star cast of young British singers and a new translation by Jeremy Sams.

Presented by Andrew McGregor.
English National Opera Orchestra, conductor Mark Wigglesworth Parti

In the wake of the recent Kurtag Festival in London, another chance to hear a concert from at last year's Huddersfield Festival, featuring Kurtag's String Quartet No 1, Officium Breve in Memoriam Andreae Svervansky and the UK premiere of Zwiegesprach. The Arditti Quartet is joined by Kurtag's son Gyorgy Kurtag Jr, who devised the electronic element. German vocal virtuosi Neue Vocalsolisten Stuttgart join the Arditti Quartet for Hilda Paredes 's Can Silim Tun , a setting of ancient Mayan spells for the bewitching of deer and spiders. The two groups team up again for Vaporby James Dillon , and electronics alone accompany the singers for a performance of Nova Mob by Austrian composer Olga Neuwirth. And by way of contrast, a new
CD release of Gavin Bryars 's Adrian Song Book performed by the soprano
Valdine Anderson with the Gavin Bryars Ensemble. Presented by Sarah Walker.
