Performance on 3 - BBC SO - Mozart, Bartok, Haydn

Presented by Petroc Trelawny Another chance to hear the BBC Symphony Orchestra under Principal Guest Conductor, David Robertson at this year's BBC Proms. Between Mozart's final operatic overture and the most determinedly optimistic of Haydn's 'London' symphonies come two contrasting works by Bartók: the unusually mellow and good-humoured Piano Concerto No. 3, featuring distinguished pianist Richard Goode, and the compact burst of fierce vocal virtuosity in which Bartók retells the Romanian coming-of-age parable of nine young hunters fleeing their roost.
