Petroc Trelwany presents a performance given at Glasgow's City Halls, the first of the Scottish Chamber Orchestra's Mendelssohn bicentenary celebrations which puts the composer in the company of others who inspired him and those he himself influenced.

Two youthful works bookend this concert: Mendelssohn's Overture to A Midsummer Night's Dream is one of the most celebrated pieces by a teenager; Saint-Saens' Symphony in A was a 15-year-old's ambitious attempt at a serious Teutonic-style symphony. In between, soprano Kate Royal sings Berlioz's song-cycle.

Philip Dodd examines a controversial new biography of pioneering sociologist Max Weber.

Philip Dodd examines the life of German sociologist Max Weber, most famous for showing that capitalism and Protestantism were intimately linked.

Philip Dodd examines the life and work of German sociologist Max Weber, as revealed in a new biography by Joachim Radkua. The iconic early 20th-century sociologist is famous for identifying the now-universally accepted link between Protestantism and the rise of capitalism, and for promoting the notion of 'charisma' as an important political factor. As the book's English translation is published, Radkau talks to Philip about why Weber's life urgently required a new biographical treatment. His book brings out Weber's suffering, his fears and his desires, his methods of work as well as his religious experiences, all of which had a profound impact on his writings.
