Symphonies and swing with conductor Tito Mu帽oz

Tito Mu帽oz opens up a selection of classical music from his point of view as a conductor - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.

Conductor Tito Mu帽oz reveals his discovery of Mendelssohn鈥檚 revised Italian Symphony on a trip to Leipzig, and explains how an orchestra can sound 鈥榤enacing, sly, and nervous鈥� in the way it swings.

Plus, Tito鈥檚 first encounter with historical performance with the playing of violinist Rachel Podger, and how melody can be uncovered in Stravinsky, once you decipher the phrases鈥�

A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
