Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra at the Proms plus highlights from the East Neuk Festival
Tom McKinney with highlights from the East Neuk Music Festival, and from the Proms, Simon Rattle conducts Bruckner’s 4th.
Today’s Classical Live includes another chance to hear last Thursday night’s Prom. Sir Simon Rattle makes his first Proms appearance as the new Chief Conductor of one of Germany’s leading ensembles, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra.
After a highly anticipated new work written for the orchestra by long time Rattle collaborator Thomas Adès and given as part of our Bruckner 200th-anniversary celebrations, his evocative Symphony No 4 - the "Romantic". Few scores convey Anton Bruckner’s distinctive combination of mystery and warmth.
To start today’s Classical Live, more exclusive recordings from the recent East Neuk Festival in Fife. The Pavel Haas quartet perform music by Tchaikovsky.
