Part 1
From the Barbican Hall, London. 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra under Alexander Vedernikov. Szymanowski: Concert Overture. Dvorak: Violin Concerto (soloist: Frank Peter Zimmermann).
Petroc Trelawny presents a concert live from the Barbican Hall in London.
Slavic flavours and great melodies are to the fore in tonight's concert of orchestral music from Eastern Europe. From Poland, Szymanowski's Concert Overture dates from the early 1900s. Distinguished German violinist Frank Peter Zimmermann takes the solo spotlight in Dvorak's evergreen Violin Concerto, while the programme's second half holds the compelling Third Symphony of Prokofiev, dating from the turbulent Soviet 1920s.
