Programme Earth Pilgrim Jan 20 18.10.
Beautiful filming, entertaining commentary and a superb singer accompanying bluebell scenes.
How was the singer. What album has it been taken from? Can you help? I want to buy it.
Satish Kumar was inspirational and a pleasure to listen to. His use of language moved me. Is the music that accompanied Satish available to buy. Could you advise. Also. is that particular programme available on DVD.
Regards
Hi - I watched the programme Earth Pilgrim about Dartmoor. In the programme Satish Kumar told us that 'Dart' means 'Oak'. Where does that come from?
Many thanks
I watched BBC2's 'Natural World' - "Earth Pilgrim - A Year on Dartmoor" presented by Satish Kumar with both joy and sadness. 'Joy' because it captured for me the essence and beauty of life. 'Sadness' because it reminded me of the damage that humankind has inflicted on the life of the planet in the past ten thousand years, and in particular, the past three hundred years of humankind's 1.5 million years living on the planet.
Of the many important details alluded to in the programme three are worth recalling:
A. That unless we are at peace with nature we will not find peace.
B. The pollutedness, or unpollutedness, of the earth's water is reflected in the overeall health of the planet.
C. The reference to the life of trees, and how they can inspire us to seek a better understanding of the interconnectedness of life througout nature.
The programme has encouraged me to continue to seek understanding through my own work relating to shared learning and sustainability.
Finally, the "Earth Pilgrim - A Year on Dartmoor" justifies the licence fee. If only there were many more programmes like it.
Thanks again.
Can anyone tell me the name of the first piece of music - it sounded like a Zither or similar instrument - and who is the composer?
Programme Earth Pilgrim Jan 20 18.10
I watched this for the 2nd time and still found it beautiful but I want to know the name of the piece of music played just after the scenes of the Kestrel and throughout the stag rutting This is a beautiful piece of music which I would like to buy.
Like others,I am interested in finding the name of pieces of music used in tv programmes such as the gentle jazz used in Natural World's "Tiger Kill".
Is there a straightforward way of finding out what music is used?
I'd like to know if anyone recognised the piece of music playing over the 'autumn' sequence with the deer? Violin/viola solo with choral reprise? Also, for those who'd like to know, at the start of the programme Faure's Requiem was played, The Beatles 'Mother Nature's Son' from the White Album, and of course Vaughn Williams' 'The Lark Ascending'. Any help with the piece we're after would be much appreciated! thanks
Oh...and in answer to Alan Stanway's posting, the jazz piece is "this is heaven to me" by Madeline Peyroux...enjoy!
Hi,really enjoyed this program,I would like to ask you if you can let me know the composer the title of the music that was being played at the time when the lions killed the hyena,Hope you can get back to me.Thanking you,Cliff.
The music sounds like Ennio Morricone - A Few Dollars More, when Naabi gets attacked then escapes the 3 lions.
Can anyone tell me the name of the Chillout music played as Naabi travels back the to tribe near he end.
You can see a review of the brilliant cheeky monkeys episode and more at http://giantsorbitting.blogspot.com/2008/11/natural-world-clever-monkeys.html
We missed the progamme of Natural World on the cork in the Alentejo in Portual - is it available to buy on a dvd? H. Clarke
I saw the Cuckoo programme and wondered if anyone knew the name of the guitar piece which was used as background music at the beginning of the programme.
Tonight's Natural World, Unearthing India's mysterious creatures, was beautiful! Can you tell me if the final music was the lovely voice of Susheela Raman?
Who was the narrator of tonight's excellent programme on polar and grizzly bears? Why was he not mentioned in the credits at the end?
Does anyone know what the classical piece of music is that is being played as the soundtrack in this programme, A farm for the future?
An excellent and highly educational for the world
Excellent programme - would like BBC to follow progress of this and similar farms
An absolute must see for the human race; sit up and take notice, we can help heal the worlds looming problems and it's not rocket science, it's living and working with nature. A wonderfully well researched and well presented programme, I just wished I had recorded it.
I long time after the requests for info but some of "classical" music used in A farm for the future is by Anne Nikitin (she was in the credits). Try one of her webpages http://www.annenikitin.com/Farm.html
i would just like to say that the Natural World programme re Victoria Falls was beautiful and wonderful and hour of TV and i loved the idea of it being narrated by a local, i have travelled around that area and it brought back many happy memories of my time there.
Eva, Dublin, Ireland.

Please , Please can any one help! Doe,s anyone know if you can purchase the dvd 'cork in a bottle?' made in the Alentejo area Portugal by the BBC. Thanks
