Music to accompany the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Four Symphony series. Dvorak: Symphony No 8 in G. Wagner: Gotterdammerung (excerpt). Brahms: Symphony No 1 in C minor. Tchaikovsky: Symphony No 6.
Louise Fryer continues Radio 3's month of programmes complementing the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½4 series "Symphony" - including every note of every Symphony featured in the television series.
Today she's joined live in the Afternoon on 3 studio by conductor Sir Mark Elder to discuss what Wagner's music is doing in a series about the Symphony and to celebrate the diversity of the Symphony itself in the late 1800s - in three very contrasting works from Germany, Bohemia and Russia. The programme begins with the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ National Orchestra of Wales live at ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Hoddinott Hall in Cardiff playing one of Dvorak's best-loved Symphonies.
