BBC National Orchestra of Wales

Part One

Friday 20 May 2005 19:30-20:25 (Radio 3)

Jac van Steen conducts his first live concert with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales as its Principal Guest Conductor.

Stravinsky's visceral vision of pagan rites still sounds as fast, furious and dangerous as it must have done when it caused a riot at its premiere in 1913. Plus a favourite romantic concerto with rising star and former Radio 3 New Generation Artist, Janine Jansen. From the Brangwyn Hall, Swansea, introduced by Sarah Walker.

Duration:

55 minutes

Playlist:

Bartok: Two Pictures Sz46 Op 10
Tchaikovsky: Violin Concerto, Op 35, in D
Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring

BBC National Orchestra of Wales
Jac van Steen (conductor)
Janine Jansen (violin)

[Continues at 8.45pm after Twenty Minutes]
