5: The Last Operas and Retirement
Gluck had hoped to find fulfilment in Paris and at first the Paris audiences and critics adored his work. He followed up his first great success with another opera based on a Greek myth - Iphigenie en Tauride. It turned out to be his last grand opera written in the reforming, naturalistic style which he had pioneered. Donald Macleod introduces excerpts from this work and from Gluck's last opera, the conservative pastoral, Echo et Narcisse. Afterthese final efforts Gluck abandoned the lyric stage in Paris for retirement in Vienna.

8.00 Twenty Minutes: Mahler and Klimt David Huckvale traces the interweaving relationships between Gustav Mahler, the artist Gustav Klimt, and Mahler's wife
Alma. Mahler was known to be the model for the Knight in Klimt's large-scale Beethoven Frieze in Vienna, and repaid the compliment by conducting Beethoven at its unveiling. But it was Alma who first caught the eye of Klimt, when she was in her late teens, and began a romantic involvement four years before she met and married Mahler.
