Sarah's guest this week is the film director Beeban Kidron. Beeban came to prominence in 1989 with the BAFTA award-winning TV adaptation of Jeanette Winterson's autobiographical novel, Oranges Are Not the Only Fruit, and since then she's directed television dramas, documentaries and feature films including Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason and To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar. In 2006 Beeban founded the charity Filmclub, an organisation which sets up after-school film clubs in schools in England and Wales and in 2012 she was made a life peer. As well as discussing her life and career, Beeban shares some her favourite classical music, from Puccini and Mozart to Messiaen.
10.30am
Music in Time: Baroque
Sarah delves into the Baroque period, with its taste for lavish musical displays. Today she explores the music of the Bohemian composer Biber, whose Missa Salisburgensis - composed for the spacious interior of Salzburg Cathedral - employs a vast array of voices and instruments.
Followed by a new feature:
Double Take
Sarah explores the nature of performance by highlighting the differences in style between two recordings of a keyboard piece by Scarlatti.
11am
Artist of the Week
Sarah's Artist of the Week is the Scottish pianist Steven Osborne. A fervent champion of 20th-century music, Osborne so impressed Messiaen's widow with a performance of Trois Petites Liturgies that she invited him to Paris to study Messiaen's larger piano works, and his recording of the epic piano cycle Vingt Regards sur l'Enfant-J茅sus is among the finest accounts on disc. He has also recorded the complete piano works of Tippett, including the colourful and somewhat neglected Piano Concerto. As a chamber musician, Osborne had worked with some of the world's leading musicians, and this week Sarah features him in Prokofiev's Violin Sonata No. 2 (with Alina Ibragimova) and Schubert's Variations on an Original Theme, D813 (with Paul Lewis), as well as Beethoven's 'Hammerklavier' Piano Sonata.
