preserved in the memories of the Tibetan nomads and
despite its ancient origins still generating new episodes.

Sibley begins a new four-part series tracing the story of
music in the cinema since it first made an appearance, in The
Jazz Singer, over seventy-five years ago. With contributions
from eminent film composers including Lalo Schifrin, Rachel
Portman and Danny Elfman, Brian Sibley explores the way music
has been used to create a mood, conjure a time or place, or
simply to underscore the action.
Scoring The Silence: In the early days of silent cinema,
music was sometimes played on the set to help actors get
into the mood of a scene. When the resulting films were
screened, audiences watched them with live piano, organ or
orchestral accompaniment. Every film begins as simple pictures
without music; it is the addition of the score that creates a
powerful extra dimension, drawing viewers into a deeper
engagement with the images before them.

talents and disciplines are needed to be a screen composer?
Composers talk about the heritage of their craft, and film
composers from the past whom they admire or who have
influenced them. We also explore the beginning of the
composition process. What sort of music is wanted? Will an
existing classic be better than a new composition: Wagner for
Apocalypse Now, a Strauss waltz for 2001: A Space Odyssey
(eventually chosen over an original score by Alex North).
Composers tell us about discussions with the director,
writers and producers; the juggling act of being creative
and tuning in to what other people hear? We discover how
composers set about researching a film's subject or time-
period. Just how do you research the music of Cleopatra's
Egypt? How do they make their initial choices on style and
approach, and how often do they find themselves revisiting their
own previous themes (John Barry made a quirky reworking of his
regal music for Queen Eleanor in The Lion in Winter as a theme for
the Queen of Hearts in Alice in Wonderland!) How do they start
sketching and proposing ideas?

1845-1930 *BBCR3 lebrecht.live: Much of modern art arises from what Jean-

arouse indignation over inhumanity, injustice and the
impermeable heartlessness of authority. Picasso intended
'Guernica' as an anti-Franco propaganda piece. Shostakovich
wrote symphonies that covertly attacked Stalinist tyranny. David
Hare is writing a piece for the National Theatre castigating the
Blair government. But is art an appropriate medium for agit-prop?
Is political art the most effective art, or even good politics? Can
art ever be neutral? In a post-totalitarian world, lebrecht.live
attempts to draw new boundaries between art and politics for the 21st
century. Your views, please, to lebrecht.live@bbc.co.uk or phone us

2000-2100 *BBCR4 ARCHIVE HOUR: Stalin The Terrible: Like his predecessor
Tsar Ivan, Stalin held on to power with a reign of terror,
his purges and his policies destroying thousands of his
citizens. Like other tyrants though, he managed to project an
image of the 'great teacher', and when he died 50 years ago on
March 5 1953, the nation went into genuine shock and mourning.
Searching in the BBC and the former Communist archives Jim
Riordan uncovers the witnesses who experienced Stalin's rule at
first hand, and examines how Stalin kept his powerful hold on the
USSR over a period of 25 years

2200-2300 *KQED Soundprint: Segment One: "Common Ground." Scotland: the land
that brought us the steam engine, the thermos flask, the
pneumatic tyre, and the vacuum cleaner - to say nothing of
single malt whisky. But few people know that Scotland is also
in the vanguard of a bold experiment in social justice and
economic equality. As producer Bob Carty found out, the Scots are
not only enmeshed in explosive debates about power, and wealth and
privilege, but also about how to revive the economy and culture of
rural Scotland.
Segment Two: "Fishing in Troubled Waters." Scottish
fishermen are facing an uncertain future as their market
opens up to international fishing companies. Combined with
falling world prices and rising fuel costs, these global
factors threaten the viability of the industry. The British

0130-0230 *RFPI ALTERNATIVE RADIO: Molly Ivins about Politics and the Art
of Deception: Bush and Company just gave the American public
the best argument yet for publicly financing campaigns.
Getting cozy with the rich is nothing new to president-select
George W. Bush. But even he has reached new heights in his
recently unveiled tax plan, which abolishes dividend taxes on
investments. This direct appeal to what he calls the "investor
class" also happens to appeal to the portion of the population
that is most likely to vote. But here is the hidden catch: not only
is he giving up on the working class, but also the majority of the
so-called "investor class". It turns out the plan does not apply to
retirement accounts such as 401(k)s and IRAs. Over half of the
benefits go to the wealthiest 1 percent of Americans. It seems that the
super-rich are the demographic Bush is really swooning over. Considering
the social costs of influence peddling in Washington, public financing of
political campaigns is a bargain.
Molly Ivins is a keen and trenchant observer of the
American political scene. Her razor-sharp wit and pen spare
no one. Based in Austin, Texas, she is a nationally

of terrorism at home, and war abroad, many educators are
asking about the most effective ways of teaching young
Americans about America. President Bush has said that children

is worth fighting for." But teachers have always debated how to
teach the American "cause" and "character." That challenge

Prokofiev's death, Gerard McBurney presents an evening of
speech and music that takes you behind the mask of this
enigmatic composer. The 'enfant terrible' of Russian music in
his youth, Prokofiev fled the Russian Revolution in 1917 and
went into exile in the West. He became one of the leading
figures of the avant garde, first in the USA and then in France,
where he joined the influential circle around Serge Diaghilev.
But he chose to return to the Soviet Union, just when Stalin's
purges were at their height. During his last years there he composed
some of his greatest works, including the epic opera War And Peace,
but eventually fell victim of Stalin's wrath in 1948, and died a sad
and broken figure on the same day as the great dictator himself.
Throughout the evening, leading Prokofiev specialists and interpreters
(including Mstislav Rostropovich, Vladimir Ashkenazy and Valery Gergiev)
provide their own views of the composer, punctuated by some of the classic
Russian performances of his music. MORE DETAILS

0310-0500 *WGN EXTENSION 720: TRACKING THE GREAT AUTHORS
WILLIAM BAKER of Northern Illinois University is one of the
leading experts on Victorian literature in the United States.
But he is also an experienced literary sleuth. He tracks the
great works back to their origins, attempting to reach the root
thought processes of their authors through letters, notebooks,
manuscripts, and other early evidence. Among those he is
"investigating" are George Eliot, G H Lewes, Walter Scott, Harold
Pinter, Wilkie Collins, Bernard Kops, and Edwin Muir. Our other
guest is LARRY LIPKING of Northwestern University, a Samuel Johnson
and 18th Century specialist but, like all good English professors, a
generalist. On the trail of the great works
0400-0500 *KQED City Arts & Lectures: Arthur Sulzberger, chairman of the
New York Times Company and publisher of the New York Times;
and Howell Raines, new executive editor
0406-0500 *WPRi The Connection: Discussion about women & war. If women
ruled the world, the old saying goes, there would be no war.
Aristophanes thought so. His heroine, Lysistrata, convinced
the women of Ancient Greece not to put out until their men put
down their arms. Would she stand a chance?
0606-0700 *KQED Forum with Michael Krasny: State-sponsored assassinations
and the move to rewrite President Ford's executive order.

international relations at San Francisco State University; Tom

Initiative at the Center for Strategic and International
Studies; Jack Spencer, senior national security analyst at the
Heritage Foundation; and Laura Donohue, acting assistant professor

Stanford's Center for International Security and Cooperation
1230-1300 *RN DOCUMENTARY: "Black Water, White Water": During the wet
season, one-fifth of the world's freshwater flows through
the Amazon. It contains more species of fish than all the
rivers of North America or Europe. Humans settled along the
banks of the Amazon 10,000 years ago. Today people still make a
living fishing the Amazon. But some species are disappearing.
Scientists are the new explorers of the Amazon - searching for
explanations, separating myth from reality, and trying to find
solutions to a host of problems. Ginger da Silva explores the
Amazon in "Black Water, White Water" – part of Radio Netherlands'
River Series. +5965 [repeated at 1500, 0000, 0500 to NAm; and several
other times]
1530-1600 *KUNM Bioneers, "Daughters of Thoreau: Not Too Well Behaved." On
his deathbed, Henry David Thoreau said his only regret was
that he had been too well behaved. Julia Butterfly Hill,

imaginative, inspiring and courageous direct-action heroines of
our era, share their experiences and show us how courage and
commitment can stop mountains from being moved
1800-1900 *CAINAN THE POINT: The History of Crime and Scandal on Cape Cod

Cod Today on the subject joins Mindy. Mr. Albright also has
a web site, capecodconfidential.com dedicated to the subject
1900-2000 *BBCR2 Nick Barraclough: Exactly forty years ago today, on the 5th
March 1963, a twin-engined Comanche returning from Kansas
City to Nashville crashed killing all on board, including
Randy Hughes the pilot, country singers Hawkshaw Hawkins and
Cowboy Copas, and probably the greatest female country voice
ever, Patsy Cline. Patsy Cline's is quite a story, one of
triumph and success, skulduggery, sex and tragedy. Despite being
only thirty when she died, a mere six years after she had first
appeared on the Arthur Godfrey Talent Scout Show, Patsy's life,
both professional and private, has to be one of the most colourful
in country music history. Her reputation as a warm hearted, ambitious
lady who liked to take a drink and lived a tempestuous life with her
husband has become almost as well known as her songs. In a tribute to
the doyenne of country music, Nick tells her scintillating and
remarkable story with contributions from, amongst others, Brenda Lee,
Harlan Howard and former husband Charlie Dick. He also plays the songs
that made Patsy Cline irrefutably the first lady of country: I Fall To
Pieces, Walking After Midnight and, of course, Radio 2's Country Song of the
Millennium, Crazy

Talking Point. He's in London as part of an intensive round
of diplomacy over a possible war with Iraq
2100-2130 *BBCR4 An Earth Made For Life: The popular view that the earliest
Earth was a barren wasteland is probably wrong. Science
writer Gabrielle Walker travels to Greenland to see the
evidence (blackened rocks with a special chemical character)
that life not only survived but probably thrived as far back as
geology can take us. And she hears that not only was the Earth
apparently made for life; it was also made by life, as the first
organisms re-fashioned their own environment
2100-2200 *OPB Justice Talking: in-depth look at the key cases and
controversies before the nation's courts. It tackles the
differing values that lie at the heart of this democracy
showing the Constitution as a living document. Hosted by
Margot Adler. This week: Do people have the right to smoke in
public or has cigarette smoking become so offensive that it
belongs only in the privacy of one's own home? As a public health
measure, New York City has just banned cigarette smoking in
restaurants and bars. But some are questioning the science on
second hand smoke and asking if the nanny state had taken its
legislative power a little too far. In this edition of NPR's Justice
Talking, Margot Adler hosts a debate between anti-tobacco activist Joe
Cherner, founder of SmokeFree Educational Services, and libertarian
writer Jacob Sullum, an editor and columnist at Reason Magazine, who
wrote the book: For Your Own Good: The Anti-Smoking Crusade and the
Tyranny of Public Health. The program was taped before a live audience at
Baruch College in New York City and begins with a background report by Amy
Eddings of WNYC, a look back at how New York City snuffed out smoking.

that he created himself. And you thought the apple really did land

are remembered in a very different way from other parts of
the former Soviet Union or the rest of his world. His statues
still stand there, the first toast of an evening meal is often

various followers in the country who think of him of as a great
Georgian, as well as a great dictator. But like elsewhere, his

Merridale journeys to Tbilisi and Gori to meet Stalin's Georgian
heirs - his devotees and his surviving victims, his great grandson
and the ninety year old teacher of English who saw her university
classmates executed - and to try to understand how Josef Dzhugashvili,

performances from some of the highest profile players in Pop.
The series is under-pinned by performance and presentation from
the Godmother and Godfather of British swing, Dame Cleo Lane and
John Dankworth. Thirty-two years ago John and Cleo decided they
wanted somewhere intimate and close to home to play music with
friends, so they converted the stable block in the grounds of their
house. Since then, the newly re-built 400 seat venue has gained an
international reputation for the quality and variety of its jazz
programming and as a place to hear musicians at their most creative.
Presented exclusively for BBC Radio 2, this series offers the finest Big
Band in the country under the baton of John Dankworth in support of a
diverse array of stars from the worlds of jazz and pop.
The series of 6 hour long programmes have all been recorded
live and exclusively at The Stables theatre in Wavendon.
This is not simply a series of concert relays. It features
many new arrangements and compositions from the likes of Craig
David, Andy Summers, Alison Moyet and David McAlmont alongside,
from the jazz world, musicians like Stan Tracy, Guy Barker,
Claire Martin and Julian Joseph. This week UK Pop artist David

compelling dialogue between former New York Governor Mario
Cuomo and Indiana Congressman Mark Souder -- two deeply
religious politicians. The conversation was recorded at the
Pew Forum on Religion and Public Life held in Washington, DC
in October 2002. Former Governor Cuomo and Congressman Souder
inhabit opposite ends of the political and theological spectrum --
Cuomo is a classic democratic liberal and a lifelong Catholic;
Souder is a neo-conservative and a self-described fundamentalist
Christian with Amish roots. Each discusses how he tries to reconcile
deep personal religious conviction while serving a pluralistic
American constituency. The depth of Cuomo's personal faith is
striking, and Souder -- who was the only House Republican to vote
against the impeachment of President Bill Clinton -- breaks the
stereotype and brings nuance to the term "Christian Right."

journeyed from the atmosphere of a tavern brawl to the hallowed
silence of a cathedral whilst listening to classical music over the
years? And how might audiences behave in the future?

2100-2200 *KQED Radio Specials: Voices of Public Intellectuals: Women and
the Law : "The Asymmetry of Citizenship." Tonight's speaker
is Linda Kerber from the University of Iowa. The language of
equality in American law and tradition is wholesomely generic,
but the practices of citizenship have not always been practices
of equality. Kerber examines some of the ways in which the
meanings of citizenship have been, and continue to be, different
for men and for women
2200-2300 *KQED Soundprint: Segment One: "Loida and Johanna Go to Flin
Flon." Flin Flon, in Manitoba, Canada, is said to be the
only city in the world named after a character in a science
fiction story. In 1915, gold prospectors stumbled across a
dime store novel abanadoned under a tree. They read a chapter
or two, and discovered Flintabatty Flonatin, a man who found an
underground city of gold in his submarine. They called their new
town Flin Flon. A decade later, the Canadan National Railway came
to town, bringing with it miners from all over the world. Segment
Two: "After Sorrow." "After war, the people you meet differ so from
former times," wrote the Vietnamese poet Nguyen Trai in the early
15th century. Americans are still searching for answers to the Vietnam
conflict, and the conflict that lives on in the collective mind and
soul of this country. American writer Lady Borton is one of the few who
has explored the North Vietnamese point of view in trying to reach an
understanding of what happened and why. Borton was the first American
journalist given permission by Vietnamese officials to speak with ordinary
villagers and to live with a village family

and Entropy, they address the themes he has grappled with so
memorably in his acclaimed novels: "the pull of the past over
present and the profound effects that one person can have on
another" (San Francisco Chronicle); the aftershocks of the
Holocaust; the convergence of science, the imagination and the
spiritual realm; and the way art can shape our humanity

11: Chile 1973. September 11 is now engraved on the
consciousness of Americans. Yet for the South American
country of Chile, the date has a different and much more
tragic significance. It was on that day in 1973 that the
democratically-elected government of Salvador Allende was
overthrown in a CIA-backed military coup. Augusto Pinochet seized
power. In the ensuing years tens of thousands of Chileans were
killed, jailed, tortured and driven into exile. The US role, under
Nixon and his National Security Advisor Kissinger, in first
destabilizing and then overthrowing the Allende government was
decisive. It will rank among the most grotesque interventions ever
undertaken by the US. A few years after the coup, Nobel Peace Prize-
winner Kissinger visited Chile. He told General Pinochet, " In the
United States, as you know, we are sympathetic with what you are trying
to do here." Peter Kornbluh (Korn-blue) is senior analyst with the
National Security Archive in Washington DC. He is the author of "The
Pinochet File." [+6/12 hours] +7445 15038

Tunisia, Niger, and Mali. This program spotlights some leading
contemporary Berber artists including Takfarinas and Tayfa, and
legends like Matoub Lounes and others in the international Berber
Diaspora such as Houssaine Kili. The Berber story is one of

told to the Oral History Department of Columbia University in a
series of interviews spanning 10 years. Stanton - who has been
called the conscience of broadcasting and the greatest broadcast
executive of all time - was also a confidante of U.S. presidents
from Harry S Truman to Lyndon B. Johnson. He was the driving force
behind the formulation of televised debates between presidential
candidates, starting with the Kennedy-Nixon debates of 1960.
Stanton made his greatest mark on the broadcasting field when he
refused a Congressional subpoena to release non-air notes and tapes
relating to the 1973 CBS Reports documentary, The Selling of the
Pentagon. The ensuing vote by the U.S. House to hold Stanton in contempt
of Congress - and Stanton s victory - helped lay the groundwork for the
Constitutional protections broadcast journalists enjoy to the present day

1845-1930 *BBCR3 Lebrecht Live: Is a record real? Is a photograph art?
Norman Lebrecht asks how far we can trust photographs and
recordings as truly authentic. 'A fraud!' cried the conductor
Otto Klemperer on seeing an Abbey Road engineer edit a bad
note in his performance for release on record. Everyone knows
that records lie. Even the so-called 'live recordings' have been
put together from two or more performances. So can we trust a
record to deliver musical truth, or must we hear everything live?
And what about photographs? Those that qualify as works of art have
been glossed, retouched, detached from reality. Art apart, can they
be trusted as a record of the way we are, or were? The things we
accept as a matter of record are rarely what they seem on first
encounter. Do we need to reconsider the role of recording and
photography in shaping our perceptions of art and reality?

noted, "Four things belong to a judge: to hear courteously,
to answer wisely, to consider soberly, and to decide

complex modern world, what additional (if any) roles does a

2230-2300 *BBCR4 The Musical Triumphs And... Growing up in the musically
sophisticated court of her father Henry VIII, Elizabeth
acquired a love of music that would inspire her to create a
musical establishment reflecting the splendour of her own
international court. As a talented musician herself, Elizabeth
took great pleasure in the lavish musical ceremonies and
entertainments that were a feature of her reign. Despite her
Protestant reforms, Elizabeth was happy to include the kind of
elaborate music associated with the Catholic mass into services
held in her Chapel Royal. However, in parish churches across the
land, music was regarded as a distraction from the word of God and
virtually disappeared altogether. Terry Edwards investigates the
sacred and secular music surrounding Elizabeth in light of the
cultural, political and religious upheavals of her reign

she continues to stand as one of the most commanding, luminous
voices to grace America's political and poetic landscape.
Quilting the Black-Eyed Pea is a masterpiece that explores the
ecstatic union between self and community, a meditation on humanity
and soul. It's Giovanni's relevatory gaze at the world in which we
live--and her confession on the world she dreams we will one day call
home

of medicine, theology and the literature of the Greeks and
Romans, Rabelais was one of the cornerstones of the Renaissance.
A celebrator of life in all its excesses - laughter, sex, food,
drink, he created a Rabelaisian world in his Five Books led by
Pantagruel and Gargantua. He died 450 years ago in 1553, and
Julian Evans travels in search of the man through the Paris and

William Albright, Featuring New Digital Organ. As part of
its ongoing support of the music programs of Trinity Church
Wall Street, WQXR will broadcast a live concert performance of
William Albright's A Song to David, performed by the Trinity
Choir and organist Dean Billmeyer, conducted by Dr. Owen Burdick.
This performance marks the debut of the Church's new state-of-the
-art digital organ. Soon after his release from a mental asylum in
1763, Christopher Smart's 86-stanza poem, A Song to David – an epic
work rejoicing in God through the life and works of David, was
published in London. Set to music in 1983 by the late composer
William Albright (1944-1998), the work, which is scored for double
chorus, four soloists, narrators, and organ, was commissioned by the
Cathedral Church of St. Mark, in Minneapolis. Dean Billmeyer, the
organist who premiered the work, will perform the virtuoso organ part.
This concert will be the first in a year-long series of
dedicatory recitals featuring the new state-of-the-art
Marshall & Ogletree digital organ. This instrument far
surpasses any other electronic organ with respect to sonic
realism and sheer computing power: 60 channels of digital audio
fed through 60 specially designed speakers and 6 sub woofers.
This instrument, driven by over 20 computers working in tandem,
is intended as a long-term interim solution while Trinity restores
or rebuilds its Aeolian Skinner pipe organs which were destroyed by
the dust and debris from the 9/11 attack. Ground Zero is located just
600 feet from Trinity Church [NOT! tho on the monthly specials list,

1930-2000 *BBCR4 Crossing Continents: Updated version of Claire Bolderson's
report last December on misery in one of the most exclusive
holiday spots of the Caribbean. Thousands of men and women
have fled Haiti, the poorest country in the Western
Hemisphere, but live in constant fear of deportation. Many are
denied health care, even if they have AIDS. Many of their
children are barred from local schools. Britain has attempted
over the years to grant considerable autonomy to its remaining
"colonies" or overseas territories. In attempting to shed the role
of imperial ruler, is it failing in its legal duty to uphold human
rights? Claire looks at the changes which have taken place since
this campaigning programme was broadcast, and asks whether there's
been a change of heart in Whitehall.

the Voices of Public Intellectuals lecture series defines
issues affecting civic life. The language of equality in
American law and tradition has not always translated to

harassment law, and citizenship issues, three invited scholars,
lawyers, and historians explore, in accessible terms, gender and the
public and private rights of citizens. Lectures and Speakers: Beyond

social hierarchy taking hold in Britain today, the Indian
caste system. For many of the nearly one million Britons of

influence over their everyday lives. Yet it's a subject many

virtues of caste. He finds out whether tradition can merge with a
modern British identity, when it comes to the caste system
