Tomorrow, December 31, on BBC Radio 3, a new chance to listen to Words and Music: Awake! which includes a poem by Anne Brontë:

Friday, 17:00 on BBC Radio 3
A sequence of music, poetry and prose united by the theme of awakenings.
Including readings by Peter Marinker and Hattie Morahan from the work of Mary Shelley, A E Housman, Edward Thomas, Anne Brontë and Percy Bysshe Shelley. With music by Handel, Bach, Stravinsky and Britten.

(...) The possibilities of sensual and spiritual awakening through nature is heard in Anne Brontë’s “Lines Composed in a Windy Wood” whilst in “Reveille, from A Shropshire Lad” A E Housman urges us up out of sunlit beds and into the world, associating sleep with death. 

 Producer: Natalie Steed
