Jess Gillam is joined by Italian-American violinist Francesca Dego to swap some of their favourite music. Francesca has played everywhere from Wigmore Hall to Lincoln Centre New York, and her latest recording of Brahms and Busoni violin concertos with BBC Symphony Orchestra and conductor Dalia Stasevska is out now via Chandos. Today Francesca has brought along music from neglected Finnish composer Helvi Leiviskä and a fiendish 12-tone work from Schoenberg, while I’ve chosen David Bowie’s swansong.PLAYLIST:GIOACHINO ROSSINI – ‘Una voce poco fa’ (Il barbiere di Siviglia: Act 1) [Teresa Berganza (mezzo soprano), London Symphony Orchestra, Alexander Gibson (conductor)] PETER MAXWELL DAVIES – Farewell to Stromness [Richard Casey (piano)] HELVI LEIVISKA – Orchestral Suite No 2, Op 11 (2nd mvt, Humoresque) [Lahti Symphony Orchestra, Dalia Stasevska (conductor)] DAVID BOWIE - Lazarus JOHANNES BRAHMS – Concerto for violin and cello in A minor, Op 102 (2nd mvt, Andante) [Salvatore Accardo (violinist), Heinrich Schiff (cello), Kurt Masur (conductor), Gewandhausorchester] ARNOLD SCHOENBERG – Phantasy for violin and piano [Patricia Kopatchinskaja (violin), Joonas Ahonen (piano)] LANKUM – Wild RoverProduced by Rachel Gill.
Today’s guest deejay is Francisco Dominguez, AKA Forest Robots. The story behind Forest Robots is sweet. It began with Francisco’s travels to the Sierra Nevada. The photos he took while there told the tale of his adventures in those beautiful mountain landscapes. It wasn’t until the birth of his daughter that those stories coalesced. Those pictures and stories could teach his daughter about the wonders of nature, the importance of spending time outdoors, and how vital it is to help conserve public lands. Those same photos and stories, his music, all of distilled into the project he calls Forest Robots, a love letter to my daughter about the wonders of nature. I had come across Francisco’s musical journeys through Bandcamp. Still, it wasn’t until John Shanahan, host of the Hypnagogue Podcast, played Forest Robots in his mix for Soundwave, that I was compelled to seek him out and invite him to guest deejay on the show. It’s a lovely mix. Maybe you’ll listen to it when you visit the Sierra Nevada. Or perhaps you can visit the Sierra Nevada in your imagination while listening to it while doing the dishes or walking your dog, which is how I experienced Francisco’s mix. You can find Forest Robot on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Mixcloud, and Bandcamp. Join us next week when our guest deejay will be Monty Adkins. See you then.

We feature three works that recast age-old myths from a woman's perspective. Milica Paranosic's Penelope and the Geese reimagines the Odyssey from Penelope's point of view. We talk with her about the opera and feature three key scenes. And Marisa Michelson's Naama's Ark tells the flood myth from the perspective of Noah's wife and Salvatore Sciarrino's La Nuova Euridice lets Orpheus' famous bride tells her own story.
