: Sunday Feature: Wisteria - TwilightPoems from the Swamp Country
When the poet Kwame Dawes , who was born in Ghana and grew up in Jamaica, moved to Sumter in South Carolina, he recorded interviews with older black people he met, who told him about their lives in the era of segregation. From these recollections Dawes wrote a collection of poems, Wisteria, which the New Orleans composer Kevin Simmonds set to music for an ensemble of 14 black classical musicians. Using this music, the original interviews, readings of the poems, and conversations and sounds newly recorded in Sumter, Wisteria - Twilight Poems from the Swamp Country is a poetic reflection on the lives of black people in the South.

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.
