BBC Proms 99

BBC Radio 3
on BBC Radio 3

Another chance to hear last Friday's Prom, which featured three last symphonies of tantalisingly different styles, moods and content.
Tchaikovsky ends his in despair with conscious finality, while Sibelius achieves a glorious serenity, and Lutoslawski takes a journey of such optimistic exploration it belies any feeling that he was near the end of his creative life.
BBC National Orchestra of Wales, conductor Mark Wigglesworth
Sibelius Symphony No 7
Lutoslawski Symphony No 4
Tchaikovsky Symphony No 6 in B minor (Pathetique)
