Summary
Anna Rakitina conducts the BBC National Orchestra of Wales at BBC Hoddinott Hall in a programme of Langer, Mozart, Antheil and Stravinsky, featuring pianist Clare Hammond.
Why it's fantastic
This whistle-stop tour spans the satirical energy of a jazz-infused symphony and Stravinsky’s rhythmic power. You will likely recognise the central Mozart concerto from its countless appearances on screen, played here by the acclaimed Clare Hammond. It is an ideal mix of familiar melodies and bold, cinematic twentieth-century storytelling.
