  Letters to Sibelius

  Five programmes in the form of letters from Marshall Walker to the Finnish composer Jean Sibelius. Walker is a retired Professor of English who lives in Hamilton. He grew up in Glasgow and at an early age he was hooked by the music of Sibelius. These programmes recount episodes in Walker's life and the powerful effect that Sibelius had in them

  Walker's mother informs him that Sibelius's music - specifically the famous Valse Triste - was also important in her own family. We hear stories about Walker's grandfather and uncle, both of whom he never met. The grandfather was killed in a horrific accident and the uncle died on the Salonika front in World War I (RNZ)

  The Massey Lectures

  The CBC Massey Lectures celebrated fifty years in 2011 with bestselling author, essayist, cultural observer, and famed New Yorker contributor Adam Gopnik.

  His subject is winter - the season, the space, the cycle. Gopnik takes us on an intimate tour of the artists, poets, composers, writers, explorers, scientists, and thinkers, who helped shape a new and modern idea of winter. A stunningly beautiful meditation buoyed by Gopnik's trademark gentle wit, Winter is at once an enchanting homage to an idea of a season and a captivating journey through the modern imagination.

  Winter - five windows on the season
