The Psychology of Jazz

This programme looks at the fascinating intersection of jazz and psychology. Jazz pianist Kenny Werner talks about how his self-styled, self-help manifesto for musical breakthroughs became a must-read for musicians and we hear from the author of a book that's putting the long-taken-for-granted link between insanity and creativity through its intellectual paces. And we'll get an insiders' look at the world of music therapy and find out how jazz in particular is well suited to helping non-musicians reach their real life recovery goals (American Public Radio)

The Secret Life of the Orchestra

The Orchestra is a mysterious beast. Developed over hundreds of years from instruments with diverse origins; assembling massive numbers of musicians playing instruments that require many years of practice to master; capable of changes in sound and colour that range from a whisper to a jet engine...

When it all comes together, the results can be startling, but how does it all work? And where did it all come from?

(ORF/WFMT)

As we listen to pieces of violin music, composed between the early 1700s and the early 1900s, we recognize changing forms and styles. But we seldom relate these changes to the wider changes happening in European culture. In this series John Drummond treats pieces of violin music as windows into the time of their composition, relating them to contemporary values, ideas and tastes
