BBC Symphony Orchestra
Conductor Jonathan Nott
Tuesday 21 February 2006 19:30-21:30 (Radio 3)
British-born conductor Jonathan Nott has made a great reputation for himself in Europe, but has not often been seen at work in the UK. He makes his debut with the BBC Symphony Orchestra in a fascinating programme.
There's a Haydn symphony, a rarely-heard Schubert symphony, Schubert-inspired music by Henze, and the world premiere of an imaginative new violin concerto by Simon Holt, performed by young violinist Vivianne Hagner. Presented by Penny Gore.
