    Anton Bruckner
    Donald Macleod explores five personality traits of the strange genius Anton Bruckner.Donald starts with Bruckner’s obsessive tendencies – from bar-counting to full-blown ‘numeromania’ which landed him in a sanatorium. We hear about Bruckner’s unshakeable religious belief, his influential divine visions, and his music for the church. Next, his veneration for Wagner - he was transformed by the experience of hearing Tannhaüser, and paid frequent tribute to the man he was wont to call “the master of all masters”. Bruckner was also one of music history’s great re-thinkers. His many musical revisions were driven by artistic insecurity, criticism and his constant search for proportion and balance. Finally, Bruckner’s superstitious nature is explored, particularly his fear of writing a ninth symphony.Music featured: Locus iste, WAB23 Symphony No 1 in C minor Mass No 3 in F minor, WAB 28 (Kyrie) Symphony No 5 in B flat, WAB105 Germanenzug (The Germanic Host), WAB 70 Mass No 1 in D minor, WAB 26 (Sanctus) Ave Maria, WAB 6 Mass No 2 in E minor, WAB 27 (Credo) Os iusti, WAB 30 Ecce sacerdos magnus, WAB 13 Virga Jesse, WAB 52 Psalm 150, for soprano, chorus and orchestra, WAB 38 Wagner: Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg, Act 3 (‘Ehrt eure deutschen Meister’) Symphony No 3 in D minor, WAB 103 Christus factus est, WAB 11 Symphony No 7 in E, WAB 107 Symphony No 2 in C minor, WAB 102 Symphony No 4 in E flat, WAB 104 (‘Romantic’) Symphony No 8 in C minor, WAB 108 Bruckner: Symphony No 9 in D minor, WAB 109 Symphony no 9 in D minor, WAB 109 Te Deum, WAB 45Presenter: Donald Macleod Producer: Chris Barstow for BBC WalesFor full tracklistings, including artist and recording details, and to listen to the pieces featured in full (for 30 days after broadcast) head to the series page for Anton Bruckner: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0000xj9And you can delve into the A-Z of all the composers we’ve featured on Composer of the Week here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3cjHdZlXwL7W41XGB77X3S0/composers-a-to-z

    Dora Pejačević
    Donald Macleod introduces a first in Composer of the Week’s seventy-year history, the Croatian Countess Dora Pejačević. Donald is joined by Professor Koraljka Kos and Professor Iskra Iveljic to discuss the known facts about the life and music of this Countess and her family. Although Pejačević was born into one of the most influential aristocratic families in Croatia, she became rather critical of her own class in later life. Through her position she did have the opportunity to study in Germany with noted music teachers of the day, and met and collaborated with some of the literary giants of the early twentieth century. Upon her death at the age of only 37, she left a catalogue of over one hundred compositions displaying a unique voice now largely forgotten.Music featured: Romance, Op 22 Symphony in F sharp minor, Op 41 Zwei Nocturnes, Op 50 No 2 Piano Concerto in G minor, Op 33 Zwei Lieder, Op 27 No 1 (I creep along my way) Warum?

    Hubert Parry
    Marking the centenary of his death, Donald Macleod explores the life and work of Hubert Parry.Donald begins with the story of Parry's early years, rooted at Highnam Court in Gloucestershire, before looking at the period he was centred around Orme Square in London, the home of his teacher and mentor Edward Dannreuther. We hear about Parry’s connection with the long-running Three Choirs Festival: Parry’s father, Thomas Gambier Parry, was energetic and generous in his efforts to ensure the Festival’s survival, and the Three Choirs was to prove an important platform for his son’s music. Another hugely important institution to Parry was the Royal College of Music - in time, he would become Director of the College and an inspiration to the next generation of composers. We finish with the final years of Parry’s life, during World War One, when Parry's most enduring composition, Jerusalem, was first performed at the Queen’s Hall in London.Music featured:I was Glad Freundschaftslieder Bright Star Fantasie Sonata in B major Choral Prelude for Organ "On SS Wesley's Hampton" Symphony No.1 (2nd movement) Love is a bable Cello Sonata in A Take, O take those lips away Partita in D Minor String Quintet in E-Flat Major Symphony No. 2 in F major (The Cambridge) Long Since In Egypt's Plenteous Land Blest Pair of Sirens The Soul's Ransom Symphony No.3 in C major (The English) Who Can Dwell in Greatness The Birds of Aristophanes Crabbed Age and Youth From Death to Life Symphony No.4 (4th movement) Jerusalem Ode on the Nativity Lord Let Me Know Mine End Symphony No.5 in B minor (ii.

    Thea Musgrave
    Donald Macleod is in conversation with Thea Musgrave as she celebrates her 90th birthday.Donald and Thea begin by discussing her dream of becoming a composer, and the dreams that have inspired her works. Born in Edinburgh, Thea left her medical degree for music, winning a composition prize which took her to Paris to study with Nadia Boulanger. A dream about a subversive clarinettist helped formed the idea for her breakthrough commission from the CBSO, the Concerto for Orchestra. They talk about her early electronic experimentation, and her idea of the dramatic abstract, where she experiments with spatial configurations of players and acoustic possibilities. Thea is also one of Britain’s most prolific living opera composers, bringing to the stage stories of figures like Mary Queen of Scots, Harriet Tubman, and Simón Bolívar. In 1970 she was offered the post of Guest Professor at the University of California at Santa Barbara and has lived and made her life as a composer in the States ever since. Donald asks her about her approach to teaching and encouraging young composers. They look at the importance of visual art in Thea’s life and imagination, leading to significant compositions inspired by Edward Hopper and J. M. W. Turner. Finally, Thea reflects on the continuing pleasure she derives from composing, as well as her on-going friendships with players, and she stresses the vital part that music plays in all of our lives.Music featured: Driving in the Highlands (Excursions for piano duet) Four Madrigals Rorate Coeli Impromptu for flute and oboe Concerto for Orchestra Niobe for oboe and pre-recorded tape Concerto for horn and orchestra Wild Winter I The Peace Chorus (Mary Queen of Scots, Act 1) The Seasons Helios - Concerto for oboe and orchestra On the Underground, Set 2: The Strange and the Exotic Night Windows for oboe and piano Turbulent Landscapes for orchestra On the Underground, Set 1: Sometimes Songs for a Winter’s Evening Two’s Company – a concerto for percussion and orchestra Presenter: Donald Macleod Producer: Rosie Boulton for BBC WalesFor full tracklistings, including artist and recording details, and to listen to the pieces featured in full (for 30 days after broadcast) head to the series page for Thea Musgrave: https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m0000kg9And you can delve into the A-Z of all the composers we’ve featured on Composer of the Week here: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/articles/3cjHdZlXwL7W41XGB77X3S0/composers-a-to-z
