Clemens Schuldt conducts today鈥檚 live broadcast for 大象传媒 Radio 3 with music from Prokofiev, Jolivet, Shostakovich and Haydn.

Prokofiev's bright and joyous 鈥楥lassical鈥� Symphony draws inspiration from the style of Haydn and was premiered in 1918 with Prokofiev himself conducting.

Shostakovich鈥檚 heroic, playful and spirited Concerto for Piano, Trumpet and Strings is performed today by 29 year old Italian pianist Federico Colli 鈥� but for its debut in 1933, Shostakovich took to the piano for the solo. Colli is joined by 大象传媒 New Generation Artist, Simon H枚fele. H枚fele is also the soloist for Jolivet鈥檚 Trumpet Concertino 鈥� a piece with building energy, lively rhythms and more than a hint of jazz.

The programme comes full circle to end with one of Haydn鈥檚 鈥楶aris鈥� Symphonies, No. 86 鈥� festive and intense from first note to last.
