A Lark Ascending Posted May 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 BBC Radio 3 rather than TV 4 but might be of interest to some. Django Bates did this morning's 'Something Understood', a regular 30 minute meditation on things religious or spiritual. I generally find it a bit god-bothering for my determinedly materialistic outlook but there are often bits of music that pique my curiosity. Includes Mingus, Reich, Coltrane (including a bizarre moment where someone reads the lyrics to My Favourite Things as if reciting Wordsworth), Feldman (Bates recommends dancing to Feldman) and an interview with a recording engineer about the differences between vinyl and CD (told you it was a religious programme!).

A Lark Ascending Posted August 22, 2015 Author Report Share Posted August 22, 2015 (edited) This Friday:http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01sbxqwNot sure if this has been shown before (it has a 2013 date). Don't recall seeing it.As usual with TV programmes about jazz it seems to take the 'pain' of the 'artist' angle. Dear, oh, dear.
