Beethoven: Symphony No. 8

Tonight Andris Nelsons, the CBSO and its Chorus arrive at Beethoven's Ninth Symphony: the summit of any Beethoven cycle. But there's a world of experience to live through before the transcendent Ode To Joy which ends the work, and Beethoven's explosive little Eighth Symphony launches the concert.

Live music and the arts: broadcasts more live music than any other radio network. Classical music is its core. Genres include world and new music, jazz, speech and drama.
