Sound & The Fury

Beginning on Tuesday 12th February, on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Four, The Sound and the Fury: A Century of Modern Music traces the turbulent history and ground-breaking music of the last century, uncovering how the last 100 years have changed music and the way we listen to sound forever.

In the first episode, Wrecking Ball, a host of renowned composers explore the foundations of contemporary music and discuss why 20th century composers deliberately chose to discard the traditional structures of form, melody and rhythm in favour of consonance and dissonance.

The three episodes also feature specially filmed performances from a number of ensembles including the London Sinfonietta, which can been seen in full on the Red Button after each programme. This week features music by Arnold Schoenberg, Anton Webern and Charles Ives.

Red Button digital text changes

Over the next weeks, we'll be making some changes to the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ's Red Button text services. We are performing some technical work behind the scenes to remove the final parts of the publishing processes still powered by the recently discontinued Ceefax service.

We've tried to keep any changes to the public service to a minimum, but there will be some alterations to the content provided. For full details of the changes are listed on the Red Button service on p998.


Red Button events on Virgin Tivo

Right now Connected Red Button does not currently feature eTV (enhanced TV) streams on the Virgin TiVo service.ΜύWhile users can already enjoy live coverage and highlights from a range of Sporting events on the service, we are working to extend this capability to a wider range of events, on and off-schedule contentΜύduring 2013.

Please note that there was delay to this blog going live due to technical difficulties.
