Late Works by Bach, Beethoven and Max Reger.

The Aris Quartet and clarinettist Annelien Van Wauwe play late works by Bach, Beethoven and Max Reger at Turner Sims, Southampton. These current and recent Radio 3 New Generation Artists join forces at the University of Southampton's intimate concert hall for a programme which explores works which seem to sum up the composers' life-work. In the Art of Fugue, Bach explores the fugal possibilities of a single musical phrase whilst Beethoven develops a musical world which touches the spiritual. As Schumann remarked: "It seems to stand...on the extreme boundary of all that has hitherto been attained by human art and imagination." And the programme ends with Max Reger's masterful but seldom heard Clarinet Quintet, completed just a few days before his death. Presented by Andrew McGregor. Bach: Contrapuncti 1 and 2 from The Art of Fugue, BWV 1080. Beethoven: Quartet No 14 in C sharp minor, Op 131. Aris Quartet. 8.10pm Interval Music: the Agnus Dei from Beethoven's Missa solemnis, which seems to presage some of the musical and spiritual ideas behind his Opus 131, Quartet c. 8.25pm Reger: Clarinet Quintet in A major, Op 146. Aris Quartet with Annelien Van Wauwe (clarinet).

The French in Vienna.

Concerts from Vienna and Rotterdam with Fiona Talkington, with the French National Orchestra and Rotterdam Philharmonic. In 1971, an American pianist bought a box of unidentified manuscript music from a local sale for $11. Inside was the manuscript of a score by Max Bruch of his concerto for 2 pianos, which he had written for two piano playing sisters. The sisters had never played Bruch's original, preferring to make their own performing edition. The orchestral parts for this original were had been available at the same music sale, and gradually they were gathered together and Bruch's original was given its premiere in 1973. The other pieces in the French National Orchestra's are Bizet's suite of incidental music to the play L'Arlesienne (the girl from Arles), and Albert Roussel's suite from his ballet Bacchus et Ariane. Mahler wrote his symphonic poem Todtenfeier with a view to turning it into part of a symphony, but a less than sympathetic Hans von Bulow was not impressed and that mattered to Mahler, because he was the leading conductor in Hamburg where Mahler was now working at the opera. Von Bulow's health began to decline and Mahler found himself filling in for his indisposed colleague more and more until von Bulow's death in 1894. Totenfeier translates as funeral rites and with that and attending von Bulow's funeral, Mahler was propelled into writing his second symphony, the Resurrection, so called after the words of poet Klopstock that had been read at von Bulow's funeral. And that leaves Totenfeier as part of and yet separate from Mahler's Second Symphony. Bruch: Concerto for 2 pianos in A flat minor, Op 88a. Katia and Marielle Labeque. Bizet: L'Arlesienne, suite No 2. Roussel: Bacchus et Ariane, Suite No 2, Op 43. French National Orchestra, Alain Altinoglu (conductor). Mahler: Todtenfeier. Rotterdam Philharmonic Orchestra, Yannick Nézet-Séguin (conductor).

The Sixteen at 40.

On their latest stop in the 2019 Choral Pilgrimage, The Sixteen reach York Minster, where they perform choral music from the 16th and 21st centuries as part of this year's York Early Music Festival. The Sixteen's 2019 Choral Pilgrimage brings together music past and present, highlighting the group's musical journey over the 40 years since it was founded. Their continuing close relationship with Sir James MacMillan is represented by a new commission, O virgo prudentissima, here contrasted with music by Fayrfax (which appeared on The Sixteen's very first recording) and complemented by music by Wylkynson and Sheppard. These superb examples of English polyphony are juxtaposed with stunning music by John Tavener and Eric Whitacre. Plainsong: Salve Regina. Tavener: Hymn to the Mother of God. Sheppard: Gloria from Cantate Mass. Eric Whitacre: Sainte-Chapelle. Wylkynson: Salve Regina a9. Fayrfax: Aeternae laudis lilium. Gabriel Jackson: Ave Maria.

Revolution, Destruction and a Nobel Prize.

Chopin's Warsaw piano, recreated for the first time in this concert from Polish period ensemble Collegium 1704 and pianist Krzysztof Ksiazek, and presented by Fiona Talkington. Around 1815, organ-maker Fryderyk Buchholtz opened a piano-making workshop in Warsaw, where as a student, Chopin would drop in to test his new pieces. By 1825, Chopin's family could buy and install a Buchholz instrument in their apartment, where Chopin created many of his early masterpieces, including both Piano Concertos. Chopin left Warsaw in 1830 never to return, and his piano was inherited by his sister Izabella, who took it with her to her new apartment near the lavish Zamoyski Palace when she married. In 1863, Tsarist soldiers ransacked the palace and nearby homes in retribution for a failed assassination attempt on the Tsarist governor of Poland. Chopin's Buchholz piano was thrown through an upper floor window, and shattered on the pavement below. There are so few surviving Buchholtz pianos that it has taken till now to get sufficient information together to attempt a re-creation, which is by period keyboard specialist Paul McNulty. And there is Tchaikovksy from the 2018 Nobel Prize Concert in Stockholm. Every year, there is a classical concert which happens alongside the awarding of the Nobel Prizes, and last year the central work was a symphony by Tchaikovsky. The Fourth Symphony begins with a brass fanfare depicting fate. As Tchaikovsky wrote to his patron and the symphony's dedicatee Madam Nazheda von Meck, `The fatal power which prevents one from attaining the goal of happiness. There is nothing to be done but to submit to it and lament in vain". In tonight's performance, the Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra is conducted by Karina Canellakis. Chopin: Piano Concerto No 2 in F minor, Op 21. Krzysztof Ksiazek (piano), Ensemble 1705, Václav Luks (conductor). Tchaikovsky: Symphony No 4 in F minor, Op 36. Royal Stockholm Philharmonic Orchestra, Karina Canellakis (conductor).

Double Trouble.

Leading up to Friday's First Night of the Proms, Georgia Mann presents the first of a week of programmes featuring Europe's leading orchestras this season, beginning with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe performing Liszt, Mozart and Hummel. When players from the European Union Youth Orchestra set up the Chamber Orchestra of Europe in 1981, it quickly became established as one of the world's finest chamber orchestras and has consistently performed with top-rank soloists and conductors. This concert, recorded in March in the Bruges Concertgebouw as part of the International Brussels Music Festival, features Vilde Frang and Lawrence Power in Mozart's great double concerto for violin and viola and ends with his final symphony and summing-up of his composing genius, the Jupiter. It begins with diabolical Liszt: a rare chance to hear Two Episodes from Lenau's Faust performed together, as Liszt intended. The solemn Procession by Night, by turns bleak and comforting, is followed by one of Liszt's greatest successes, Mephisto's wild Dance in the Village Inn. Liszt: Two Episodes from Lenau's Faust, S 110. Mozart: Sinfonia Concertante in E flat, K 364. 8.35 Interval Music (from CD). Hummel: Octet-Partita in E flat. Wind Soloists of the Chamber Orchestra of Europe. 8.50 Mozart: Symphony No 41 in C, Jupiter, K 551.

Extraordinary Experience.

Herbert Blomstedt made his conducting debut in 1954 and last week celebrated his 92nd birthday (he's older by 20 months than even Bernard Haitink). The Swedish-American conductor still enjoys a busy international career, with a long list of honorary posts to his name and guesting with the world's finest orchestras. He's become famous for his benchmark interpretations of the Austro-German classics and championing of Scandinavian repertoire, as here in this concert recorded in Munich in May, with Blomstedt leading one of Germany's premiere orchestras.

`The world turns on its dark side". So begins Michael Tippett's choral masterpiece A Child of our Time, composed during the early years of the Second World War and giving expression to Tippett's hopes for a better world. The performance of the secular oratorio this evening, with a starry cast, opens the CBSO's new concert season under its Musical Director Mirga Gražinyte-Tyla, and is presented alongside a piece in a similar vein from the same period, by Tippett's contemporary, Benjamin Britten. The concert is introduced by Tom McKinney. Benjamin Britten: Sinfonia da Requiem. Interval. Michael Tippett: A Child of our Time.

Operatic Passion.

A rare chance to hear Handel: Brockes-Passion given by one of the UK's leading period performance ensembles and an outstanding trio of soloists. By 1719, when he set Barthold Heinrich Brockes' version of Christ's final days, from the Last Supper to the Crucifixion, Handel was already established as one of Europe's foremost composers, especially in opera. So it's not surprising that Handel's Passion setting is at once deftly paced, emotionally engaging and compellingly dramatic. Canny as ever, Handel recycled numbers from some of his older Italian and English music for his Hamburg audience (and in turn recycled parts of the Brockes-Passion for subsequent English works). Years later, a certain Johann Sebastian Bach was so impressed he used some of Handel's ideas for his own Passion settings and even performed the work himself. Presented by Martin Handley. Handel: Brockes-Passion. Sandrine Piau (soprano), Stuart Jackson (tenor), Konstantin Krimmel (baritone), Arcangelo, Jonathan Cohen (director and harpsichord).

Better Than Brahms.

A concert recorded last month at the Barbican Hall, featuring the London Symphony Orchestra under conductor John Eliot Gardiner. Dvorák's sudden death in 1904, less than a decade after he had finished his Cello Concerto, was the original motivation behind a moving musical tribute by his son-in-law. Josef Suk named his `Asrael" symphony after the Hebrew Angel of Death, who tragically struck again the following year as Suk was composing. This time Suk's wife - Dvorák's daughter Otilie - was his victim and Suk now reshaped the symphony as a tribute to father and daughter. Truls Mørk (cello), London Symphony Orchestra, conductor John Eliot Gardiner. Dvorák: Cello Concerto in B minor, Op 104. 8.15 Interval. 8.30 Suk: Symphony No 2, `Asrael".
