Afternoon Concert Simon Rattle and Friends
Episode 2 of 4

The Lucerne Festival Orchestra performs music by Beethoven and Mozart. Plus the Berlin Philharmonic in Haydn: Symphony No 95 and Dvorak: Carnival Overture.

Today's performances by the week's featured conductor and orchestra, the top pairing of Simon Rattle and his Berlin Philharmonic, are complemented by a concert conducted at last year's Lucerne Festival by Rattle's equally distinguished predecessor in Berlin, Claudio Abbado. Abbado and his acclaimed Lucerne Festival Orchestra play a Beethovenian hymn to freedom - Egmont - and Mozart's final great masterpiece, his Requiem. Rattle conducts his Berliners in Haydn and Ravel and lets his hair down in Dvorak.
Presented by Louise Fryer.
