Musically, an all-Russian concert, but with literary associations that stretch from
Russia to Italy and England. Tolstoy's great Russian classic provides the inspiration for tonight's overture, but Prokofiev looked to
Elizabethan England and Shakespeare's story of star-crossed lovers to inspire his vibrant ballet score, and Shostakovich's setting of sonnets by the great Italian Renaissance painter and sculptor was written to mark the 500th anniversary of Michelangelo's birth. Presented by Petroc Trelawny . lldar Abdrazakov (bass), BBC Philharmonic, conductor Gianandrea Noseda
Prokofiev Overture: War and Peace
Shostakovich Suite on Verses by Michelangelo Buonarroti
8.20 Twenty Minutes: The Adverb
Poet Eva Salzman , in conversation with Ian McMillan , presents a selection of her favourite writings on music in the first of a new series of literary performances, recorded in front of a live audience at Cadogan Hall.
