Part One
Thursday 7 April 2005 19:30-20:25 (Radio 3)
In the second live visit of the week to the Bridgewater Hall in Manchester, Mark Elder and the Halle Orchestra perform two of the orchestral works which transformed the classical musical landscape - Webern's five masterly exercises in economy and intensity and Beethoven's miraculous re-invention of the symphony. They are joined by Viktoria Mullova for a performance of one of the great romantic violin concertos.
