Continuing our series looking at cultural innovations which took place in the same year as the founding of the ´óÏó´«Ã½, Eleanor Rosamund Barraclough hears how the All England Tennis Club’s move to its current home in Wimbledon in 1922 was far from a smooth, uncontroversial process.

Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Symphony No. 4 in F minor
Johan Dalene (violin)
´óÏó´«Ã½ Symphony Orchestra
Jordan de Souza (conductor)
All is for the best, in this best of all possible worlds! That's the motto of Leonard Bernstein's Candide, but the swinging trumpets that launch its overture are just one side of the musical American Dream – whether it’s the soaring nostalgia of Barber's sunlit Violin Concerto (played by former ´óÏó´«Ã½ Radio 3 New Generation Artist Johan Dalene) or the urban energy of George Walker's altogether edgier 1970s classic. And then Jordan de Souza and the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Symphony Orchestra spin on a dime and plunge into Tchaikovsky's autobiographical Fourth Symphony: terror, triumph and one man’s life-or-death struggle with the force that he called Fate. In other words, the ultimate symphonic thriller.
