Sean Rafferty presents a selection of music and guest from the arts world.

Italian-born conductor Riccardo Chailly speaks to Sean ahead of his performance of Bach's St Matthew Passion with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra in the last of the Orchestra's three-concert residency at London's Barbican Centre.

Pianist and Mendelssohn expert Roberto Prosseda talks about his recording with Chailly and the Gewandhaus Orchestra of a reconstructed version of Mendelssohn's Third Piano Concerto. He is also joined by composer/conductor Marcello Bufalini, who reconstructed the work.
