Katie Derham presents a live concert by the BBC Symphony Orchestra: music by Satie and Poulenc with pianist Pascal Roge. Plus a lullaby by Oliver Knussen and Dvorak's Water Goblin.

Presented by Katie Derham.
Live from the Maida Vale studios in London, the BBC Symphony Orchestra and conductor Jean Deroyer perform a concert of French music.
The soloist in Poulenc's Concert Champetre is Pascal Rogé, who also performs and talks about solo piano music by both Poulenc and Satie.
