Conductor Semyon Bychkov and tenor Johan Botha talk about the forthcoming Royal Opera House production of Wagner's Lohengrin - a work with particular resonance for Bychkov; and conductor Gianandrea Noseda discusses the role of Faust in a concert performance of Berlioz's masterpiece "La Damnation de Faust" taking place in Manchester. 17.02 RACHMANINOV Scherzo in d minor St. Petersburg Philharmonic Orchestra Mariss Jansons (conductor) EMI CDC5 55140 2 T.6 5’23 17.08 GLUCK transc.
