Stephen Watkins presents music and texts that seek to enlighten the path untravelled, the idea unravelled. JS Bach leads. Others (and often the unexpected) follow. The seasons are reflected and the hour is respected with space and contemplation.

New born, New Year and a long-awaited feast announce spring. With the return of For the God who Sings to Sunday nights, after Valhalla burns and its creator's ideology with it, the Jewish world readies itself for introspection, abstinence, prayer and penitence, heralded by the horn of a ram. Meanwhile, the Muslim world rejoices that its fast has been faithfully observed and begins (flood devastation in parts of its domain permitting) to eat again, while Christians celebrate the Nativity of Mary with music history has fostered and preserved to her veneration and our inspiration.
Audio updates after 6.15pm Monday Syd/Melb time.
