Composer of the Week - Alexander Borodin (1833-1887) - Episode 3

The "Nocturne" from Borodin's Second String Quartet is one of the most beautiful works ever written. Shame it's been rearranged, covered and generally messed about with by all and sundry. In today's episode Donald Macleod presents a glowing performance of the complete work by the Borodin Quartet, as well as the composer's greatest orchestral masterpiece - his Second Symphony.
