Thursday - David Danzmayr conducts Beethoven

The Ulster Orchestra perform Beethoven's Seventh Symphony, Bax and Stravinsky, plus a performance from the Valle Baroque Festival in Sweden.

Presented by Fiona Talkington, with concert performances from around Europe.

This week's focus on the Ulster Orchestra continues with Beethoven's Seventh Symphony, in a new recording with the young Austrian conductor David Danzmayr, who also makes today's artist choice - music inspired by Beethoven from composer Carlos Simon. We also hear the orchestra in sea-inspired music by Arnold Bax, and Stravinsky's ballet score, Orpheus. Plus more from G枚teborg Baroque's concert at Sweden's Valle Baroque Festival, Lionel Meunier directs Vox Luminis, and Gershwin and Weill from the duo of trumpeter Simon H枚fele and pianist Frank Dupree.
