    One of those "miscellany" programmes, where Tom Service presents items from a variety of events. Few details about which works will be broadcast, but some of the composer/performers named are:

    "Orchestral works" by Mexican composer Ana Lara (b1959) and French composer Bruno Mantovani (b1974), played by the BBCSO conducted by ... doesn't say. (I suspect that it's Pierre-Andre Valade, and the works are Lara's Cuando caiga el silencio ["when the silence falls"], and Mantovani's Entrechoc ["jostling"] - both given in a Maida Vale concert on 8th March.)

    Angharad Davies(b1974)'s Solo Violin and Four Bass Amps recorded at a Kammer klang event at Cafe Oto on 5th March.

    And performances from ensembles Bastard Assignments (given in Snape Maltings a fortnight ago) and House of Bedlam with pianist Zubin Kanga (given at a "Nonclassical" event at The Victoria, Dalton on 15th May).

    The best new music in live performance, plus interviews and features. With Tom Service.

    ........Extended interview with Howard Skempton on Late Junction last night. Why don't we get this sort of thing on Saturday nights anymore?

    Come to think of it, Max might make an ideal replacement for TS!

      And rather wonderful it was too... not sure how the spatialised sound and visceral playing will work on the radio but worth a listen IMV

        The work that I found the most impressive in the programme - no real sense of the spatialisation, but the detail of what was "left" I found held my attention, and I wouldn't've minded if the work had been longer.

          It was brilliant live... the gradual slackening of the violin strings until the bridge collapsed with the sound of thousands of mutant geese
