She's now a revered reeds player, composer, mentor and band leader with a string of eclectic collaborations -- and awards -- to her name. For Australian Music Month Sandy Evans OAM talks to Andrew Ford about her long career, about composing and about sound. Ex-pat jazz guitarist Alex Stuart is in with his quartet and Choying Drolma uses Buddhist chant in her quest to educate Nepalese girls. The Rhythm Divine With Geoff Wood Sunday 6am Repeated: Monday 1am  http://www.abc.net.au/rn/rhythmdivine/ Luminous sacred: Paul Mealor Voted Britain's favourite living composer, Paul Mealor is a writer of beautifully luminous choral music. He's also known as the Royal Wedding composer for his motet Ubi caritas chosen by the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge for their wedding in 2011. We'll hear it soon and Paul will join us by phone from Wales to tell us all about that remarkable event. He'll also take us through his recent album A Tender Light, and his new sacred work De Profundis, featuring the lowest note ever written for choral music. Later there's a breath-taking new album for Baha'i chanter and singer Shidan Toloui-Wallace and we end with an ode to Remembrance Day from PJ Harvey.

His gospel-inflected, absolutely-solo new album is the work of a now-happier man, but Phelps' pen, voice and acoustic guitars have not lost their edge. Brother Sinner & the Whale is not just for 'Believers'. Into The Music Saturday 4pm http://www.abc.net.au/radionational/programs/intothemusic/ Not just music: Collective authoring and new Australian music Fifty years ago bands started to seriously complicate the way we think about composing, as various groups all produced music that can't be explained by any theory of individual creators. Largely through various shades of improvisation, these bands arrived at forms, durations, harmonies, melodies, dynamics and aesthetics, collectively. A huge amount of music these days is collectively authored by all the participants, and Australian musician Jim Denley sees this as a quiet, major revolution that's transformed music all around the world. In Not Just Music, Denley interviews the highly successful Australian trio the Necks, as well as members of the large, experimental Sydney based group, the Splinter Orchestra, and asks how they make decisions about their music. What tantalises him is not what the structures are, but the ethics of their music-making—how do they arrive at consensus?
