Tonight's film from the cinema's hall of fame stars Gene Kelly, Donald O'Connor, Debbie Reynolds
with Jean Hagen, Millard Mitchell and Cyd Charisse
One of the screen's great musicals: a satirical, tuneful and affectionate story of Hollywood in the 20s, as the movies grappled with the problem of 'talkies'. Produced by MGM, "Singin' in the Rain" teamed Kelly and O'Connor for the first time, and was Debbie Reynolds' first major film. All the songs are authentic 'standards' of the period.

Andre Previn asks the question
Who Needs a Conductor?
'Conducting,' said Leonard Bernstein, 'is the only profession in the world where you get paid for having a fit in public!'
Richard Strauss, in contrast, suggested 'You should never perspire when you conduct; only the audience should get warm.'
Between these two opinions lies the truth.
Andre Previn debunks many of the myths that surround the subject and conducts the London Symphony Orchestra leader John Georgiadis in excerpts from some of the most popular pieces in the concert repertoire, including
Rimsky-Korsakov Scheherazade
Bartok Dance Suite
Tchaikovsky Fifth Symphony
