Introduced by Jane Glover who also talks to tonight's soloist, the soprano
Felicity Lott , and to Bernard Haitink , who conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra leader RODNEY FRIEND
Solo pianist John Alley This week's programme features two 20th-century masters of instrumental colour. Ravel: Sheherezade is a sumptuous evocation of the Orient. Originally planned as an opera, it crystallised into a ravishing song-cycle for soprano and orchestra.
In Stravinsky: Petrushka the composer had in mind 'a distinct picture of a puppet, suddenly endowed with life.' His richly-scored ballet - set in the 1830s at a bustling Shrovetide fair in St Petersburg - reflects the dance theme of this year's Prom season, and is being performed in the original concert version Stravinsky made in 1911.

Widowed after a rather dull marriage,
Alice Hyatt decides that life may pass her by. She is
35 attractive and resilient, has a 12-year-old son and no money. She decides to sell up home, head for Monterey and take up her old profession as a singer. Her journey, adventures and romance provide the eventful narrative to this moving and richly comic film.
Ellen Burstyn won an Oscar for her performance, and the movie helped establish the reputation of its director, who also made Taxi Driver and The Color of Money.
