Geoffrey Smith presents the last in a week of concerts exploring Beethoven's piano sonatas, given at London's Wigmore Hall. By the time he wrote these final works, Beethoven was stretching the boundaries of what the piano sonata could do. The gentle musings that begin the E major, the two huge fugues that dominate the A flat and the profound slow variations that conclude the C minor all show Beethoven at his most searching - a great composer at his very best. Paul Lewis (piano)

Ian McMillan presents a late-night showcase of new writing, performance and global literature.

The bandleader Sun Ra (Herman Blount ) was famous for his exotic headgear, and for his Solar Arkestra, claiming that his inspiration and music came from outer space. Yet beneath the exotic image, Ra was a highly creative musician, redefining the structure and sound of the jazz big band, and developing a pool of musicians whose individual voices are among the most distinctive in the genre. Author and critic Brian Morton joins Alyn Shipton to select the essential examples of Sun Ra's work.
