Petroc Trelawny introduces the Bournemouth Symphony Orchestra in a concert given at the Poole Arts Centre. The programme features Beethoven's Violin Concerto, a work premiered in 1806 and, with its first movement longer than most contemporary symphonies, one that took half a century to become established in the repertory.

This is followed by Shostakovich's Eleventh Symphony, an agitprop piece which drew its inspiration from a massacre of unarmed civilians during a peaceful demonstration in St Petersburg.
