Live from Studio 1 Cardiff, the first concert in a week of broadcasts by BBC ensembles devised by British composer Alexander Goehr featuring music inspired by models from the past. Beethoven's final overture evokes the spirit of Handel in a work written to mark the opening of the Josephstadt Theater in Vienna, and Hindemith pays a surprisingly affectionate tribute to the Romantic genius of Weber.
