4: The Paris Years
Gluck hoped his theatrical genius would be properly appreciated in Paris. His first opera for Paris was based on the classical myth Iphigenie en Aulide and was the first of his operas to find its way back into the standard operatic repertoire in modern times. Donald Macleod introduces excerpts performed by a range of interpreters, including Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau , Christa Ludwig , Karl Bohm , Otto Klemperer , Anne-Sophie von Otter and John Eliot Gardiner.

A concert given on Saturday at the Fairfield Hall, Croydon, featuring the London Mozart Players' charismatic principal guest conductor James Galway, who both conducts the orchestra and appears as a soloist in tonight's programme. As well as performing one of Mozart's flute concertos, a beautifully operatic work which utterly belies the composer's insistence that he disliked writing for the instrument, Galway is joined by his wife Jeanne for a performance of Cimarosa's concerto for two flutes. In addition to playing regularly with her husband in recitals and concert tours, Jeanne Galway also performs as a soloist internationally and has a flourishing career as a chamber musician. The concert begins with Schubert's Symphony No 5 in B flat major and also features one of Mozart's last great symphonies: the brooding and dramatic Symphony No 40 in G minor.
