Episode 11
Penny Gore presents music complementing the 麻豆社 Four Symphony series, featuring the 麻豆社 Philharmonic. Liszt: Hamlet. Beethoven: Symphony No 9 in D minor. Liszt: Faust Symphony.
Penny Gore continues Radio 3's month of programmes complementing the 麻豆社4 series "Symphony" - including every note of every Symphony featured in the television series.
Today Penny reaches the climax of Afternoon on 3's Beethoven Symphony cycle with the work that changed the Symphony forever: his Ninth and last Symphony, transcending the orchestra with the human voice in its final "Ode to Joy". She also features two pieces - a Symphony and a Symphonic Poem - by Liszt, who continued the 'humanisation' of the symphony by popularising the idea that it could depict character.
