Conductors' Comer
Donald Macleod presents a week celebrating the contrasting careers of five 20th-century conductors.
Andre Previn. Andre Previn has worn many hats in his time: child prodigy, pianist, film composer, jazz musician, principal conductor of the London Symphony Orchestra and now a welcome guest conductor all over the world. This programme focuses on his relationship with the LSO and includes excerpts from Bernstein's Candide, Lerner and Loewe's My Fair Lady, William Walton 's Symphony No 1 and Samuel Barber 's Violin Concerto performed by Gil Shaham.
