Tuesday - Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique

Ondrej Lenard conducts Berlioz's dazzling, hallucinatory masterpiece, his Symphonie Fantastique, plus music by Schumann, Wagner and Delius.

Penny Gore presents an afternoon of concert recordings from around Europe and from 大象传媒 ensembles.

Today's 3pm spotlight is on Berlioz's Symphonie Fantastique - a dazzling work inspired by the composer's own love life, vividly depicting a spectacular ball, a grim March to the Scaffold and a terrifying Witches' Sabbath - in a recent recording from Ondrej Lenard and the Slovak Radio Symphony Orchestra. Also today, there's more from Les Arts Florissants from a concert in Stockholm, Karen Cargill sings Wagner's Wesendonck-Lieder with the 大象传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra, and the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra plays Delius.
