Ruslan, Petrushka and Nimrod

Sir Mark Elder and the Hall茅 orchestra return for their first concert in front of a live audience since lockdown began. Presented by Linton Stephens.

Sir Mark Elder and the Hall茅 orchestra return for their first concert in front of a live audience since lockdown began. It's a programme full of life - Russian folk tunes abound in Glinka's overture to Ruslan and Ludmilla. There's Stravinsky's depiction of the puppet Petrushka embued with magical life, and Elgar's Enigma is the parade of his nearest and dearest that secured his place in history.
Presented by Linton Stephens.
