Time: 23:00 to 00:00 (1 hour long)
Pioneers of the Future. Series 1, episode 1.
Nicholas Kenyon digs into where this historical impulse came from. Reviving the music of the past has long been part of the narrative for composers and certain connoisseurs, but the idea really became public after the war. We'll hear about the first stirrings of the movement, and the iconic soloists, ensembles and innovators that made it happen. Why did we want to reimagine the past?

Reinventing the Past. Series 1, episode 2.
Nicholas Kenyon looks at the emergence of early music as mainstream. As the 1970s began, rebellion was in the air for music, as in so much else, and Britain saw the proliferation and extraordinarily rapid success of period-instrument ensembles. Certainly, there were over-statements of claims to authenticity, rebuttals from modern instrumentalists, and a period of polarisation. But the public loved the rediscoveries - these new interpreters delved back into the middle ages, explored rare and forgotten repertory, and made ancient music irresistible. JS Bach: B minor Mass (Sanctus) - Concentus Musicus Wien, Nikolaus Harnoncourt (director). Boyce: Symphony No 4 in F major (1st movement - Allegro) - Academy of Ancient Music, Christopher Hogwood (conductor). JS Bach: Orchestral Suite No 3 (Air) - The English Concert, Trevor Pinnock (conductor). Perotin: Alleluya pascha nostrum - Martyn Hill (tenor), The Early Music Consort of London, David Munrow (director). Josquin des Prez: Faulte d'argent - Musica Reservata, Andrew Parrott (conductor). Machaut: Ay mi! Dame de valour - Studio der Fruhen Musik, Thomas Binkley (conductor). Tallis: O nata lux - Clerkes of Oxenford, David Wulstan (conductor). Telemann: Psalm 6, No 8, Es müssen alle meine Feinde - Rene Jacobs (countertenor), Kuijken Consort. Hildegard von Bingen: A feather on the breath of God - Gothic Voices, Emma Kirkby (soprano), Christopher Page (conductor). Haydn: String Quartet, Op 20 No 4 (4th movement) - Esterhazy Quartet. JS Bach: Cantata No 79, 'Gott der Herr ist Sonn und Schild', BWV 79 (Chorus) - Leonhardt Consort, Gustav Leonhardt (director).

Marketing the New. Series 1, episode 3.
Nicholas Kenyon tells us how record companies rode the wave of the early music revival's success, embracing the arrival of the CD and using it to sell the past in a fresh new way. At first, this new medium with all its sparkling clarity provided the perfect excuse to re-record works, but then they took the excitement of the baroque and pushed it forward into the classical period. Audiences lapped up their new versions of familiar masterpieces. Was this going to be the sound of the future? And were conventional orchestras done for? Mozart: Symphony in A major, K 134 (1st movement) - Academy of Ancient Music, Christopher Hogwood (conductor). Beethoven: Symphony No 2 (4th movement) - London Classical Players, Roger Norrington (conductor). Anonymous: O Maria stella maris - Anonymous 4. Zelenka: Trio Sonata No 4 (2nd movement) - Accent Wind Ensemble. Bach: Prelude and Fugue in A minor, BWV 543 - Ton Koopman. Handel: Water Music, Appendix, HWV 331 - English Baroque Soloists, John Eliot Gardiner (conductor). Vivaldi: Four Seasons (Summer, 3rd movement) - Il giardino armonico, Giovanni Antonini (director). Palestrina: Nunc dimittis (live in Rome) - Tallis Scholars, Peter Phillips (conductor). Mozart: Symphony No 40 (1st movement) - Orchestra of the 18th Century, Frans Bruggen (conductor).
