Presented by Ian Skelly

Russian-born American pianist Kirill Gerstein is one of the world's great musicians, famed for his musical insight, prodigious technique and questing repertoire. Here, he is joined by Kirill Petrenko and the Berlin Philharmonic to play perhaps the most famous concerto of the last century. There's also Ravel's orchestration of Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition and a jazz-infused symphony by Ervin Schulhoff.
