When not busy with comedy panel shows, hosting The Great British Bake Off: An Extra Slice or on tour with his award-winning standup, Tom is a keen appreciator of the weird and wonderful in music, and shares some of his sonic favourites with us alongside stories and cheer. Drawn to things that are melancholic, maudlin or camp, he’s a big fan of renaissance choral music, sea shanties, traditional folk songs, and a new genre he’s coined ‘Medieval Emo’. A Late Junction listener from his early teenage years, he shares some tracks he discovered via the show, as well as other songs close to his heart from the likes of Thomas Tallis, Sufjan Stevens and Kate Bush. Plus there’s an exclusive mixtape from the legendary jazz collective The Sun Ra Arkestra. |

Subject: RE: BBC Radio This week 2022 From: GUEST,henryp Date: 09 Nov 22 - 06:12 AM 7 February 2022 21st Century Folk: Radio 2 is always looking for ways to tell stories, and 21st Century Folk is a creatively ambitious and hugely exciting new endeavour. Following in the tradition of the Radio Ballads, I’m proud that in the BBC’s centenary year we will be telling the real life stories of our listeners in the North East of England, using original music to create a lasting legacy of their experiences. Helen Thomas, Head of Radio 2 BBC Radio 2, in partnership with BBC Local Radio, launches 21st Century Folk, an ambitious initiative to capture the essence of life in the North East of England in 2022 - the BBC’s centenary year – through the prism of folk songs, and offering people from the region the opportunity to have a song written about their life. Mark Radcliffe unveiled the project to listeners on The Zoe Ball Breakfast Show on Radio 2 and on BBC Radio Newcastle and BBC Radio Tees, asking people from the North East to share stories about their daily lives. Five of these stories will be given to songwriters, who will write original songs based on the listeners’ experiences. The songs will then be performed by a range of artists, including musicians with links to the region. BBC Radio 2 Folk Show with/without* Mark Radcliffe Broadcast 02 Nov 2022* Available on BBC Sounds for 23 days Teesside songwriter Sean Cooney, of The Young'uns, shares his favourite songs about real people. Sean is one of the songwriters involved in Radio 2's 21st Century Folk, which is creating a musical time capsule of life in the North East of England. Five singers are meeting five Radio 2 listeners and writing songs about their lives. Inspired by 21st Century Folk, Sean devotes this week's Folk Show to songs about real people and true stories. 21:00 09 November 2022* Then on demand for 30 days on BBC Sounds Chris Difford of Squeeze shares songs by his favourite folk and acoustic songwriters. In January 2023, Chris will take part in Radio 2's 21st Century Folk, writing a brand new song about a real Radio 2 listener from the North East of England. The project will create a musical time capsule of northern life in 2023, in which five real people will have their life experiences immortalised in song. 21:00 16 November 2022 Strange gap in BBC Radio 2 schedule! 21:00 23 November 2022 Then on demand for 30 days on BBC Sounds This week, Jackie Oates and her trio perform songs from her new album, 'Gracious Wings'. |

Song lyrics are usually understood to be fiction - Tom Jones's 'Delilah' isn't an admission that the Welsh singer actually stabbed an unfaithful girlfriend, and Bob Marley never "shot the sheriff". But in California rap lyrics have been presented as evidence in criminal prosecutions in such a way that the state has now legislated to restrict the use of those lyrics in trials. And a murder conviction has been overturned, and a retrial ordered, for a rapper convicted on the grounds of his lyrics. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001dx61 > skip to ~14:00 |

Oliver Postgate's father was a communist and his mother was a political activist, daughter of prominent Labour figure George Lansbury - how much of this political background can we find in the fantastical worlds that he created?

From humble beginnings to scoring for his band to perform with Charles Hazelwood's Army of Generals, Brighouse and Rastrick Brass Band and the BBC Concert Orchestra for The Proms, McNally has sought confidence and inspiration along the way from Ralph Vaughan Williams. He finds kinship in a quest to prove that the people's music is anything but common, to draw out and elevate the beauty and truth present in those folk songs fondly but unfairly known as low culture. In his essay, McNally looks at VW's thoughts on National Music and the inescapable relationship between place, community and creativity. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001cnvs Scroll episodes forward & back for more VW essays but this one seems most related to folk. |

Subject: RE: BBC Radio This week 2022 From: GUEST,henryp Date: 12 Sep 22 - 11:06 PM BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week The Captain’s Apprentice from 9.45am Monday 26 September Following in the footsteps of Ralph Vaughan Williams, Caroline Davison explores the influence of folk song and the Fens on the composer, in the 150th anniversary of his birth. Ralph Vaughan Williams was a keen collector of folk songs, and committed to saving these indigenous tunes before they could be forgotten. In 1905 he was in King's Lynn where James 'Duggie' Carter sang 'The Captain's Apprentice'. The tune was beautiful and the melody, harmony and feeling went on to shape Vaughan Williams' future composition. Yet, in stark contrast, the lyrics of this song told a tale of brutal torture at sea. Alongside the story of Ralph Vaughan Williams' passion for folk song and the Fens, Caroline Davison delves into the plight of cabin boys on the high seas who were at the mercy of unscrupulous sea captains. Folk songs are not the only the theme examined in this account, we also discover how the landscape of the Fens inspired Vaughan Williams work, and there are glimpses into the composer's personal life, and the times in which he lived. Monday 26 September 9.45 repeated 00.30 1 of 5 Norfolk Rhapsody Caroline Davison explores the influence of folk song and the Fens on the composer. Tuesday 27 September 9.45 repeated 00.30 2 of 5 Folk Song and Composition Inspired by song collecting in King's Lynn, Vaughan Williams composes Norfolk Rhapsodies. Wednesday 28 September 9.45 repeated 00.30 3 of 5 Vaughan Williams and Fen Country Ralph Vaughan Williams's emotional connection to the Fens found expression in his music where memories of youth, love and happiness make their mark. Thursday 29 September 9.45 repeated 00.30 4 of 5 Vaughan Williams Has an Epiphany In 1903 the composer meets Mr Potiphar and has a musical epiphany. Friday 30 September 9.45 repeated 00.30 5 of 5 The Captain’s Apprentice Is Revisited The composer revisits The Captain's Apprentice after disaster strikes the Norfolk coast. |
