Petroc Trelawny presents a concert recorded earlier this month at London's Barbican Hall. As a teenager, Petr Eben experienced the deathly landscape of Buchenwald concentration camp; but his music tonight bears witness to the triumph of hope over adversity. And Brahms's progressive first piano concerto triumphed as a masterwork only after ridicule had greeted its early performances. The evening ends with Dvorak's pastoral vision of Bohemia's meadows and forests.
Cedric Tiberghien (piano), BBC Symphony Orchestra, conductor Jiri Belohlavek. Petr Eben Vox Clamantis
Brahms Piano Concerto No I in D minor Dvorak Symphony No 5 in F
