BBC Proms Chamber Music 2005

Concert Seven

From Cadogan Hall, presented by Stephanie Hughes.

A lively vocal and instrumental ensemble celebrates 1605 - a vintage year for Italian music. It saw the birth in Rome of Carissimi, now credited as the inventor of the oratorio. Jonas is one of his most famous - full of glorious music, and an absolute whale of a story!

Meanwhile, in Mantua in 1605, Monteverdi was at the peak of his powers, producing his impassioned fifth book of madrigals.

Carissimi: Annunciate gentes; Ardens est cor meum
Uccellini: Sonata Decima Sesta a doi violini
Monteverdi: Ch'io t'ami; Ahi come a un vago sol
Carissimi: Turbabuntur impii
Uccellini: Sonata Decima Ottava a 2
Carissimi: Jonas

I Fagiolini

A Hundred Years from Today

Part Two

The second programme marking the centenary of one of jazz's true giants, trombonist and singer Jack Teagarden. Following the demise of his own big band in the early 1940s, Jack returned to his preferred style of jazz - small group playing.

After teaming up with Bud Freeman, Rex Stewart and Eddie Condon, Jack joined Louis Armstrong's All Stars and enjoyed several wonderful years with Louis before leaving to lead a succession of small groups with Bobby Hackett, Erroll Garner, Earl 'Fatha' Hines and Don Goldie.

Geoffrey Smith is joined by trombonists Scott Stroman and Roy Williams to look at Jack's later career and at how, despite various setbacks, Jack secured his name as jazz's number one trombonist.
