A fascinating programme from the BBCSO, live from the Barbican, exploring various uses in music of the term "classical". A symphony from the classical period by Haydn is followed by another chance to hear a new "classical" piano concerto by British composer Dominic Muldowney (first performed last week in Birmingham), written for the Bach specialist Angela Hewitt. And back in 1913 Igor Stravinsky blasted all the rules of classical music away with his powerful and primeval ballet The Rite of Spring.
