Strauss's Rosenkavalier Suite
Christian Thielemann conducts the Dresden Staatskapelle in music by Weber, Wagner, and Richard Strauss's Der Rosenkavalier. Plus, Simon Rattle conducts Part 1 of Haydn's Creation.
Ian Skelly presents great concert performances from across Europe, today including music from a concert with the conductor of today's Vienna New Year Concert, Christian Thielemann, this time with the Dresden Staatskapelle in September - Weber's Jubilee overture, Wagner's Tannhauser Prelude, and, today's 3pm highlight, a suite of orchestral music from Richard Strauss's opera Der Rosenkavalier. Plus, another treat to bring in the New Year - Simon Rattle conducts his Bavarian Radio forces in Haydn's joyous oratorio The Creation. We'll hear Part 1 today, with Parts 2 and 3 following tomorrow and Wednesday.
And, as part of Radio 3's New Year New Music season, across the week Ian will select some of his personal favourite pieces of new music he's encountered over the last few years. Today's choices are a carol by Sally Beamish and orchestral music by Dobrinka Tabakova.
