The next programme to focus on the art form of sculpture and those related to music - works that often aim to embody emotion, rhythm, or legacy. In this episode we focus on just one subject - APOLLO. We look at two statues that symbolize his position as leader of the muses, hence patron of music and poetry. We will hear music by Stravinsky and Arthur Bliss.
The final programme (for now) in our series on sculptures with a musical connection. This edition takes us to AMSTERDAM and to statues by De Onbekende Beeldhouwer (The Unknown Sculptor): The Fiddler from the Ground or The Violinist - a mind-boggling sculpture that emerges from the foyer of the Stopera concert hall and, The Invisible Violinist or The Blue Fiddler that stands on a street corner. We’ll hear a violin concerto inspired by art by Dutch composer Robin de Raaff – his Violin Concerto No. 2 'North Atlantic Light' evoking the painting by Dutch American artist De Kooning and, Bach played on a blue violin.

SAINT CECILIA
The first part of a 3 part series on St. Cecilia, the patron saint of music. The series showcases diverse interpretations of music from Baroque grandeur to 21st-century reverence, and looks at a selection of the many visual masterpieces that have been created to honour her.
On this programme:
ART
French artist Gustave Moreau’s stunningly beautiful gouache and watercolor over graphite on woven paper mounted to wood panel; British artist Kate Bunce’s Pre-Raphaelite work in vibrant colours, with detail of medieval and early Renaissance art; one of the Pre-Raphaelite influenced stained glass windows created by British artist Edward Burne-Jones and designer William Morris
MUSIC
Gabriel Jackson’s La Musique - a setting of poems by Elizabeth Bishop and Charles Baudelaire on the transformative power of music; Gerald Finzi’s ceremonial ode For St Cecilia; Benjamin Britten’s response to Auden’s extraordinary imagery in his Hymn to St Cecilia
