Young American violinist Anne Akiko Meyers returns to Scotland with Barber's Violin Concerto, which combines a slow movement with a moto perpetuo ending.

The concert ends with Symphony in D minor by Cesar Franck, which was premiered at the Paris Conservatoire. It is the Belgian composer's only symphony and although it was initially received with hostility, it soon became very popular.

BBC Radio 3 - Night Waves, Religion

Philip Dodd talks to Economist editor John Micklethwait about the revival of religion.

Philip Dodd and John Micklethwait, editor of The Economist magazine, discuss the revival of religion and how this is shaping the world.

Philip Dodd talks to John Micklethwait, editor of The Economist magazine, about how a revival of religion is changing the world. In his new book God is Back, Micklethwait argues that a spread of religious fervour is having a profound effect on politics and society. 

From Russia to Turkey to India, nations that swore off faith in the 20th century are now run by avowedly religious leaders. In particular, he claims the destabilising effects of religion can be seen in such places as Iraq. 

Pointing out that by 2050 China could well be the world's biggest Muslim nation as well as the biggest Christian one, Micklethwait believes that to understand the politics of this century, we cannot afford to ignore God, whether we believe in Him or not.

In his new book God Is Back, Micklethwait argues that a spread of religious fervour is having a profound effect on politics and society, and he believes that to understand the politics of this century, people cannot afford to ignore God, whatever their beliefs.

Michael Goldfarb travels to Berlin and retraces the steps of philosopher Moses Mendelssohn

Michael Goldfarb travels to Berlin and retraces the steps of the philosopher Moses Mendelssohn, discovering the origins of the Jewish salon.

Emancipation was an important part of Jewish history. Segregated for hundreds of years, Jews were integrated and assimilated into European society. But, because of the Holocaust, most of these ghosts have been forgotten, because the community that might have remembered them no longer exists. Michael Goldfarb travels through Europe in search of these ghosts. 

In Berlin, he tells the story of philosopher Moses Mendelssohn who refused to convert to Christianity and did much to encourage Jews to hold on to their religion and identity. His family went onto establish the Jewish women's salons where all classes and creeds could openly debate art, music, literature and politics. (Rpt)
