Katie Derham presents music performed by the 大象传媒 SSO. Vaughan Williams: Symphony No 5. Szymanowski: Concert Overture. Chopin: Piano Concerto No 1. Tchaikovsky: Symphony No 6.

Katie Derham presents the 大象传媒 Scottish SO performing in the beautiful surroundings (and acoustic!) of the Music Hall in Aberdeen. Two Russian conductors join the orchestra: Alexander Vedernikov conducts music his native land by Tchaikovsky, and from neighbouring Poland - by Chopin and Szymanowski. And Vassily Sinaisky, a noted champion of British music, rounds off this week's Vaughan Williams focus with his most heavenly symphony, composed in the dark days of the Second World War.
