Presented by Petroc Trelawny

Andris Nelsons conducts the CBSO in Tchaikovsky's Voyevoda and Path脙漏tique Symphony; Rainer Gibbons is soloist in Strauss' elegiac Oboe Concerto.

The symphonic ballad The Voyevoda is one of Tchaikovsky's least-known works, perhaps because the composer himself tended to under-rate it. But in the Path脙漏tique Symphony, he threw his all into this no-holds-barred musical autobiography; the result is a symphony that blends raw emotion and glorious melody to devastating effect.
Between these two pieces by Tchaikovsky, the CBSO's section leader oboe offers a moment of tranquility with Strauss's gentle concerto.
