BBC Radio 3 - Performance on 3, Haydn Concerts, The Seasons

Presented by Ian Skelly. The Scottish Chamber Orchestra/Olari Elts in Haydn's The Seasons.

Presented by Catherine Bott. Olari Elts conducts the Scottish Chamber Orchestra in a performance of Haydn's oratorio The Seasons, considered to be his last important work.

Presented by Catherine Bott.

Olari Elts conducts the Scottish Chamber Orchestra in a performance of Haydn's oratorio The Seasons, considered to be the composer's last important work, depicting rural life through the four seasons of the year. It touches on the labours, lovemaking, hardships and celebrations of an unspecified community of peasants, who are given rousing choral passages, including a celebration of wine and a hunting chorus. The more solemn Ode to Toil caused Haydn to remark that, though he had been industrious all his life, he had never before been called upon to write music in praise of industry.

Isabel Hilton talks to Karen Armstrong about her defence of religion and the case for God.

Isabel Hilton talks to bestselling religious writer Karen Armstrong about her book The Case for God, a passionate defence of religion and an attack on prominent atheists.

Isabel Hilton hears the case for God from Karen Armstrong, one of the world's leading commentators on religious affairs. Armstrong argues that religion today has become tainted by an overly scientific emphasis on belief and evidence, and that we need to rediscover a forgotten religious tradition which privileges ritual and practice. 

Britain's best known classicist, Mary Beard, explodes some of the myths of Pompeii: how many people really died, were there really quite so many brothels and can we see evidence for an early one-way traffic system?

As the unrest in China's Xinjiang province continues, Isabel and guests discuss the construction of China's geographical and cultural boundaries. How recent and how rigid is the China we know today?

And there is a review of the first of Sky Arts' live drama broadcasts: a new play by novelist Jackie Kay.

Richard Holmes explores Haydn's reaction to the ideas of the astronomer William Herschel.

Writer and biographer Richard Holmes explores Haydn's reaction to the ideas of the astronomer William Herschel and its possible impact on his oratorio The Creation.

In 1792, on his first visit to London, Haydn visited the observatory of the great German-born astronomer William Herschel in Slough. Herschel's 40-foot telescope was the biggest in the world, and while looking through it Haydn would doubtless have learned something of Herschel's radical, potentially aetheistical theories on the formation of galaxies. Five years later, he composed his great oratorio The Creation, a seemingly unquestioning account of origins of the world as described in Genesis.
