Robin Ticciati: conductor; Peter Whelan: bassoon

Ligeti: Ramifications; Mozart: Bassoon Concerto; Bartok: Romanian Folk Dances; Mozart: Symphony No.38 in D major, K.504 'Prague'

Mozart knew Bohemia and Hungary as parts of an empire that stretched in all directions from his home in Vienna. He wrote some of his most famous music for Prague. The Hungarians, Bartók and Ligeti, were both exiled from their homeland and knew it ultimately as a land caught up in a conflict between East and West. In this programme, Ticciati leaps centuries and provokes fascinating questions of musical geography, taking in four fine masterpieces en route.
