A Masterpiece Rediscovered.

Chief Conductor Sakari Oramo leads the BBC Symphony Orchestra in a rediscovered classic by a composer who never took the easy path in life. Dora Pejačević was born into the comfort of Eastern European aristocracy but travelled miles to be challenged by the greatest minds of her age. During the First World War she volunteered as a nurse, where she experienced horrors that forced her into creative overdrive. In 1916, when her Symphony in F sharp minor started to take shape, Pejačević dropped aristocratic mannerisms and started to write with a blazing authenticity that fills this explosive symphony - the first modern symphony in Croatian music.

In the first half of the concert Vilde Frange is the soloist Ludwig van Beethoven’s glorious Violin Concerto.

Live from the Barbican Hall
Presented by Ian Skelly

Handel: Messiah.

John Butt leads the BBC National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales for Handel's ever popular oratorio, Messiah. Handel and his librettist Charles Jennens created a commentary on the key moments of the life of Jesus Christ; beginning with the prophecy and his birth, then the passion and his death, and finally his resurrection and ascension. Fundamentally intertwined with Christmas in the UK, this is also a piece close to the heart of Butt, and one in which he hears communal joy, and worship not limited to the religious tradition on which it is based. Presented by Nicola Heywood Thomas, and recorded in St. David's Hall in Cardiff on December 7. 7.30 Handel: Messiah, HWV 56 (Part one). 8.30 Interval music. 8.50 Handel: Messiah, HWV 56 (Parts two and three).

Charlotte Bray, Walton & Arnold.

Another chance to hear a concert from August 27 in which Sakari Oramo conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted in Charlotte Bray, Foulds and Arnold, while Timothy Ridout is the soloist in Walton's Viola Concerto. Martin Handley presents from the Royal Albert Hall. A world away from centenary composer Malcolm Arnold's reputation for light music and film scores, the Fifth Symphony is a richly layered work full of irony, pain and loss. An opening musical `garden of memories" pays affectionate homage to departed friends, while the scherzo flirts with jazz and the finale offers a tantalising glimpse of heaven before snatching it cruelly away. BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist Timothy Ridout is the soloist in Walton's poetic Viola Concerto, which was given its world premiere at the Proms in 1929. Global warming is the stimulus behind Charlotte Bray's Where Icebergs Dance Away, which draws on the work of American artist Zaria Forman. John Foulds: Le cabaret (Overture to a French Comedy); Walton: Viola Concerto. 8.00 Interval: Paul Harris, co-author of Malcolm Arnold: Rogue Genius, talks to Martin Handley about the music and turbulent life of this misunderstood British composer, whose reputation took a dive after the 1950s. 8.20 Charlotte Bray: Where Icebergs Dance Away (UK premiere); Malcolm Arnold: Symphony No 5. Timothy Ridout (viola), BBC Symphony Orchestra, Sakari Oramo (conductor).

London Symphony Orchestra.

Bernard Haitink conducts the London Symphony Orchestra in Mahler's Ninth Symphony, from the Barbican in London. The Ninth Symphony was written at a very traumatic time in Mahler's life - his own health was failing, and his daughter had just died, but according to Mahler this gave him a new energy for life and composing, planning his next symphonic work. Presented by Martin Handley. Mahler: Symphony No 9. London Symphony Orchestra, Bernard Haitink (conductor).

Friday 14th January 2022 (starting this evening)
Time: 19:30 to 22:00 (2 hours and 30 minutes long)

Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra.

To end the series celebrating Bernard Haitink, the great conductor's last performance, when the 90-year-old bade farewell to the international concert stage with the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, recorded at the Concert Hall, KKL, Lucerne, as part of the 2019 Lucerne Festival. To open the concert, he's joined by Emanuel Ax for Beethoven's by turns elusive and playful Piano Concerto No. 4. But to end, one of those 'Haitink' composers with which he made his name: Bruckner and his Seventh Symphony, which in this performance unfolds with Haitink's trademark inexorable inevitability, a fitting end to a seven-decades-long career. Presented by Martin Handley. Beethoven Piano Concerto No. 4 in G, Op. 58. 8.10pm. Interval. Bruckner Symphony No. 7 in E. Emanuel Ax (piano). Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra.

Manchester Week: BBC Philharmonic from Salford Quays.

Live from MediaCityUK, Salford. Presented by Tom McKinney. The last of Greater Manchester-born William Walton's three concertos forms the centrepiece of the BBC Philharmonic's live concert, and they are joined by cellist Guy Johnston, who trained at Manchester's Chetham's School of Music. The programme closes with music from Stravinsky's iconic ballet, The Firebird. His 1945 Suite transports us to the enchanting world of a magical garden, a wicked wizard, the trapped mystical firebird, a huge egg, and a happy-ever-after ending in a score of ingenious orchestral colour and high drama. Dance rhythms and opulent melody also shine through Dvorak's Eighth Symphony, which opens the evening with some of the best-known melodies in the orchestral repertoire. Dvorak: Symphony No. 8. 8.05pm Music Interval (CD). Walton: Cello Concerto. Stravinsky: Firebird Suite (1945). Guy Johnston (cello), BBC Philharmonic Ben Gernon (conductor).

Meistersinger, An Orchestral Tribute.

Antony Hermus conducts the BBC SSO in an orchestral version of Wagner's Die Meistersinger; and they are joined by Benjamin Beilman in Korngold's Violin Concerto. Live from City Halls, Glasgow. Presented by Jamie MacDougall. Korngold: Violin Concerto. 8.00 Interval. 8.15 Part 2. Wagner (arr. de Vlieger): Meistersinger - An Orchestral Tribute. Dutch composer Henk de Vlieger has made an art of orchestral compilations drawn from the operatic works of Wagner, selecting the most important fragments of these operas and placing them in a new symphonic context. In tonight's concert the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra and conductor Antony Hermus explore his transformation of Wagner's comic opera Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg into an 11-part symphony. By way of prelude the orchestra are joined by "monstrously talented" violinist Benjamin Beilman to perform Korngold's Violin Concerto of 1945, a work imbued with cinematic melodies from a golden era of Hollywood.

Thursday 10th February 2022 (starting this evening)
Time: 19:30 to 22:00 (2 hours and 30 minutes long)

John Wilson conducts the Philharmonia.

Conductor John Wilson and violinist James Ehnes join forces with the Philharmonia Orchestra for a 20th-century, all-English programme. James Ehnes is the soloist in William Walton's 1939 Violin Concerto, following in the footsteps of its original dedicatee, the legendary Jascha Heifetz, whose trademark combination of romantic expressiveness and supreme virtuosity permeates the music. At its 1908 premiere, Elgar's Symphony Symphony No. 1 was instantly hailed as a masterpiece, the greatest of English symphonies, admired on the Continent by the likes of Richard Strauss, no less. With its mixture of wistful nostalgia, melancholy and surging passion, wrapped up in those wide-leaping nobilmente melodies so typical of Elgar, the Symphony still makes an unforgettable impression. Introduced live from the Royal Festival Hall by Martin Handley. Walton: Violin Concerto in B minor. 8.05 Interval music (from CD). Ravel: Ma mère l'Oye. Katia & Marielle Labeque (piano). 8.25 Elgar: Symphony No. 1 in A flat Op. 55. James Ehnes (violin). Philharmonia Orchestra, John Wilson (conductor).

Celebrating 100 years of the BBC.

The BBC Symphony Orchestra conducted by Semyon Bychkov play Bryce Dessner, Mussorgsky's Pictures at an Exhibition, and Kirill Gerstein is the piano soloist in Strauss's Burleske. Live from the Barbican Hall, London. Presented by Martin Handley. Bryce Dessner: Mari (UK Premiere). Richard Strauss: Burleske in D Minor. 8.10 Interval. 8.30 Mussorgsky: Pictures at an Exhibition (orch Maurice Ravel). Kirill Gerstein (piano). BBC Symphony Orchestra, Semyon Bychkov (conductor). In 1922, the BBC made its first broadcast. As we celebrate a century of informing, educating and entertaining, we look back on what the world was listening to 100 years ago, and to the future as the BBC SO (founded in 1930) continues to shape the sounds of the now. It was in 1922 that Maurice Ravel turned to Modest Mussorgsky's monumental piano work Pictures at an Exhibition, reimagining the piece in orchestral clothing and bolstering its shattering climax in the process. Semyon Bychkov presides over this performance of the resulting masterpiece, after the UK premiere of a work by Bryce Dessner (who is also a member or rock band the National), commissioned by Bychkov himself. Pianist Kirill Gerstein, a long-time musical partner of the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Semyon Bychkov, takes on the hyper-virtuosic demands of Richard Strauss's Burlesque, a piano concerto homage to Brahms.

Quartet for the End of Time.

Georgia Mann presents a concert from London's Barbican, with musicians from the Guildhall School of Music and Drama performing Messiaen's Quartet for the End of Time, great chamber work written and premiered in a German PoW camp during the Second World War. The BBC Symphony Orchestra's Total Immersion Music for the End of Time in January focused on the Theresienstadt Ghetto of the 1940s. Here many of the finest musical talents of the time were held pawns in an appalling Nazi propaganda exercise, then taken to the concentration camps from which they never returned. Over the course of a day at the Barbican, to reflect their fate, the number of performers on the Barbican stage dwindled from full orchestra to conclude with just four. Messiaen composed his Quartet for the End of Time for fellow musicians imprisoned with him in 1941 in a Silesian camp, saying of the premiere: `never was I listened to with such rapt attention and comprehension". Messiaen: Quartet for the End of Time. Sabine Sergejeva (violin), Ben Tarlton (cello), Cara Doyle (clarinet), Ben Smith (piano).

Monday 7th March 2022 (starting this evening)
Time: 19:30 to 21:30 (2 hours long)

Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra.

Paavo Jarvi conducts the Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra in Mahler's epic Third Symphony, where military marches and rustic dances rub shoulders with Nietzsche and transcendence. Mahler famously told Sibelius that `a symphony must be like the world. It must embrace everything" and there's certainly a lot of everything in Mahler's Third Symphony. It takes over 90 minutes and massive orchestral forces to perform, as it lurches from resplendent and eloquent depictions of nature to military marches, earthy humour and rustic dances. There's song, too, when time seems suspended, only to be immediately followed by a jolly ding-dong folksong. And it's all capped by an extraordinary and transcendent slow orchestral finale. This recording was made at the opening concert of the Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra's new season. After four years, the orchestra was finally back in its home, the lavishly renovated Grosse Tonhalle, internationally renowned for it superb acoustics. Mahler: Symphony No 3. Wiebke Lehmkuhl (alto), Zurich Sing-Akademie, Zurich Boys' Choir, Zurich Tonhalle Orchestra, Paavo Jarvi (conductor).
