Performer: Edward Gardner

From Three Screaming Popes to Pictures at an Exhibition, a pair of works inspired by paintings frame a violin concerto by Béla Bartók at London's Southbank Centre. 

Edward Gardner’s Bacewicz, Martinů, Lutosławski and Janáček set the Royal Festival Hall ablaze. 

Principal clarinettist with the CBSO, Oli Janes talks about the elegies, raucous dances and virtuoso fireworks of Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra, which the orchestra performs in April.

The London Philharmonic new Artistic Director talks of his enthusiasm for the orchestra's forthcoming ventures, both in London and in its travels across the South Coast.

Describing the chorus of Teatro San Carlo being “made up of two rival mafia families”, the British conductor has drawn the ire of the Mayor of Naples.
