A brief overview of the German symphonic tradition, including an overture 'full of tears' and the last piece Beethoven was ever to perform as a pianist in public. Anniversary composer Karl Amadeus Hartmann's stirring and dramatic 6th Symphony promises to steal the show, conducted by one of the foremost champions of his music - Ingo Metzmacher.
