Czech Philharmonic from Prague

The Czech Philharmonic Orchestra with Schubert’s Symohony No.3 and Strauss’ Sinfonia Domestica conducted by Franz Welser-Möst; and Mozart’s “Prague” Symphony conducted by Thomas Netopil.

From the Rudolfinum in Prague, Franz Welser-Möst conducts the Czech Philharmonic Orchestra in Schubert’s 3rd Symphony, composed just after his 18th birthday; and Richard Strauss’ musical reflection of his own, much-valued home-life – the Sinfonia Domestica.

Then, the Czech Philharmonic is in the German spa town of Bad Kissingen for an all-Mozart concert, conducted by Thomas Netopil. They begin with the ballet music from “Idomeneo”, before welcoming pianist Leif Ove Andsnes to play Mozart’s Piano Concerto No.20, and ending with a tribute to their home town – the Symphony No.38, written in Prague in 1786.

Presented by Hannah French.
