Wednesday - Schubert's Fifth Symphony

The BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra perform Schubert's Fifth Symphony, and the Salzburg Mozarteum Orchestra play the serenade from Mozart's Eine Kleine Nachtmusik.

Fiona Talkington presents great concert performances from BBC ensembles and from across Europe.

Today's 3pm feature is Schubert's graceful and sparkling Symphony No.5 with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, from Glasgow earlier this year. Mozart's famous Eine Kleine Nachtmusik serenade comes from the composer's home city of Salzburg, performed by the Salzburg Mozarteum Orchestra at the 2023 Salzburg Mozart Week festival.
