Michael Sheen narrates the story of how Shostakovich stared down the abyss - and survived.\n\nDmitri Shostakovich was the golden boy of Russian music – a star before he was even out of his teens. Shy and nervous in public, his music was outrageous, daring, and brilliant. But as Stalin tightened his grip on Soviet society at the height of the 'Great Terror' of the 1930s, the young composer found himself in the crosshairs of the regime. The ink was barely dry on his new, daring, Fourth Symphony. But he also knew that it could lead him to ruin.\n\nMichael Sheen explores how Shostakovich faced up to unimaginable fear and uncertainty – and through his music, his genius and his cunning, was ultimately able to survive. \n\nIn Facing The Music, we experience the human drama behind some of the most extraordinary classical music ever written - told by legendary figures of stage and screen including Toby Jones, Maxine Peake, Andrew Lincoln and Don Warrington.

But as an African-American woman growing up in early 20th-century America, she was also doubly disenfranchised - so much so that her mother would advise her to hide her racial heritage and 'pass' as a white woman. But when Florence went to Chicago, everything changed - as an extraordinary community helped her take pride in who she was both personally and musically. Nina Sosanya tells the story of the ground-breaking premiere of Price’s First Symphony in 1933 - the first symphony by a woman to be performed by a major American orchestra, and the culmination of a set of experiences that changed her life for ever.\n\nIn Facing The Music, we experience the human drama behind some of the most extraordinary classical music ever written - told by legendary figures of stage and screen including Toby Jones, Maxine Peake, Andrew Lincoln and Don Warrington.

Yet around the same time, as a young father, he had to endure an almost unimaginable series of bereavement – after losing all three of his children to illness and accidents in barely two years.

After his First Symphony was mocked and pilloried by critics, the composer suddenly found himself unable to write a note - assailed by a crippling fear of failure.

After his First Symphony was mocked and pilloried by critics, the composer suddenly found himself unable to write a note - assailed by a crippling fear of failure. But through the talking therapies of Dr Nikolai Dahl - including an early form of hypnosis - Rachmaninov slowly came back to himself, to create one of his most cherished works: the Second Piano Concerto.\n\nIn Facing The Music, we experience the human drama behind some of the most extraordinary classical music ever written - told by legendary figures of stage and screen, including Toby Jones, Maxine Peake, Andrew Lincoln and Don Warrington.

The late 1920s saw the composer seemingly at the peak of his powers - in his early sixties, and with seven celebrated symphonies to his name, the entire Finnish nation waited with bated breath for a glorious Eighth - and more. Yet he suddenly fell silent, crushed under a weight of expectation - one that would only be released years later in a dramatic, rageful episode of creative destruction, as he fed his masterpiece into the flames of his fireplace… never to be heard.\n\nIn Facing The Music, we experience the human drama behind some of the most extraordinary classical music ever written - told by legendary figures of stage and screen, including Toby Jones, Maxine Peake, Andrew Lincoln and Don Warrington.

Despite the composer’s genteel upbringing, she had been battling for equality since she was a girl - in music, in politics, and in life. As the Suffrage movement swelled into more violent protest in the face of police brutality, Ethel Smyth’s exceptional musical skills gave women on the front lines something to yell from the top of their lungs, or whisper in the depths of a hunger strike.

And the fact that he was falling in love with the beautiful Constanze Weber…? Well, that didn’t hurt either. Mozart poured his love, lust, and newfound freedom into an extraordinary opera.

His musicians in disarray, his own star waning, his band had been reduced to playing obscure and tawdry gigs for cash - a far cry from their heyday a decade and a half before. Then, Ellington had enjoyed billboards, magazine shoots, and even a ‘National Ellington Week’ to mark 20 years since his band’s debut. But now, with a low-billing spot at the 1956 Newport Jazz Festival, Ellington was staring down the end of the road. But there was just time for one last hurrah… and to, musically, risk everything.

struggles and creative despair to craft his joyful, life-affirming opera 'Fidelio'.\n\nSurly, irascible, hot-tempered - Ludwig van Beethoven was notoriously difficult to work with; and famously often drove away those closest to him. Yet at his very darkest moment, amidst increasing hearing loss and personal isolation, he chose a different path - reaching out instead of retreating in.\n\nDominic West chronicles the turbulent journey of the creation of the composer’s only opera, Fidelio - a story underpinned by collaboration, true friendship and giving the gift of joy.\n\nIn Facing The Music, we experience the human drama behind some of the most extraordinary classical music ever written - told by legendary figures of stage and screen including Toby Jones, Maxine Peake, Andrew Lincoln and Don Warrington. Ten episodes explore the human frailties, obsessions, emotions and vulnerabilities we all experience, and the composers who confronted them - to create extraordinary music that would stand the test of time. In each episode we hear from creatives, psychologists and other experts to understand what we can all learn from their hopes, their struggles and their music.\n\nThis episode is narrated by Dominic West, and features contributions from Sophie Green, fine artist and conservationist, and Dr Tara Quinn-Cirillo, clinical psychologist and podcaster. The programme is written and produced by Gareth Ceredig and Katie Hill.\n\n\nFacing The Music is an Overcoat Media production for BBC Sounds and BBC Radio 3\nThe series is written and produced by Hannah Dean, Leonie Thomas, Gareth Ceredig, Katie Hill and Barney Rowntree – with additional production from Melvin Rickarby\nOriginal Music: Peter Gregson\nSound Design and Mixing: Mike Woolley, with additional mixing by John Scott\nExecutive Producer: Steven Rajam\nProduction Management: Amy Wheel and Janice Jardine\nCommissioner for BBC Radio 3 and BBC Sounds: Philip Raperport"},"image_url":"https://ichef.bbci.co.uk/images/ic/{recipe}/p0krqv2b.jpg","duration":{"value":1770,"label":"29 mins"},"progress":null,"availability":{"from":"2025-02-17T05:00:00Z","to":null,"label":"Available for over a year"},"container":{"type":"brand","id":"p0g8sb99","urn":"urn:bbc:radio:brand:p0g8sb99","title":"Notable","synopses":{"short":"Stars of stage and screen reveal the intense emotional battles of 10 pioneering composers","medium":"Experience the emotional drama behind the most pioneering composers and their music.
