Petroc Trelawny presents a selection of music and up-dates on the news from the arts world.: Opera on 3
Wozzeck Stephanie Hughes introduces Welsh National Opera's first new production in its new home, the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff.In Alban Berg 's modernist classic of 1925, private soldier Wozzeck is forced to submit to the humiliating demands of his superiors in order to support his mistress, Marie, and their illegitimate child. He's driven over the edge when he learns that Marie has been unfaithful to him.
Before the opera begins at 7.45, Hughes talks to the director general of WNO, Anthony Freud , about the significance of the company's move there, while director Richard Jones , conductor Vladimir Jurowski and soloists explain why Wozzeck remains such a radical opera. First performed in 1925, but banned as degenerate by the Nazis in 1933, it became the first atonal opera to find a regular niche in the repertoire after the Second World War.
Welsh National Opera Chorus and Orchestra, conductor Vladimir Jurowski

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
To read scans of the Radio Times magazines from the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s, you can navigate by issue.
