Saturday
Anne of Austria and Cardinal Mazarin are two of the central figures in Alexandre Dumas's novel, "The Three Musketeers". Together with readings from Dumas' novels, Lucie Skeaping presents highlights of a concert given by L'Arpeggiata exploring some of the music connected with Anne and Mazarin, in particular Italian music performed at her court, from composers such as Monteverdi and Luigi Rossi
I wonder when and where this recording was made. I have not come across this particular concert programme. This is more like L'Arpeggiata I know (i.e. I like) than the programme they brought to the Prom. Strozzi, Ferrari, as well as Monteverdi and Rossi as mentioned above. Sounds very interesting and intriguing.
Sunday
Catherine Bott presents a portrait of the intriguing Spanish monk and composer, Padre Antonio Soler. A disciple of Domenico Scarlatti, Soler entered the monastery at El Escorial, near Madrid, in 1752, where he remained for the last 31 years of his life, composing keyboard sonatas, chamber music and choral works
This programme has a long history: it was broadcast on Sat 29 Dec 2007, Mon 21 Jan 2008, Sun 15 Feb 2009.
I wonder if there are any rules/regulations/conventions etc. as to which programmes get repeated. Talking about repeat, can we have the late night repeat back, please?
