Fiona Talkington presents a a concert given by the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra under the baton of the late Mariss Jansons.

This concert was Jansons' final appearance with the orchestra in Munich, and featured three composers said to be particularly close to his heart. The concert began with the rumbustious overture to Weber's 1823 heroic opera "Euryanthe"; they're then joined by Austrian pianist Rudolf Buchbinder for a spellbinding performance of Beethoven's Piano Concerto No.2, which the young composer used as a vehicle for his own performances as a virtuoso.

During the interval, we'll hear Buchbinder in more Beethoven - this time without the orchestra, in the Piano Sonata No.30.

Following the break, the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra returns to the platform for a dazzling performance of Shostakovich's Symphony No.10. Written in the wake of Stalin's death in 1953, Shostakovich felt a surge of relief, freedom and creativity: his musical moniker - DSCH (D, E flat, C, B) - is woven throughout the work, satisfyingly coming to dominate the violent portrait Stalin in the scherzo and ending the whole symphony in a blaze of triumph.

To close this programme, we'll hear more from German performers, with a recording of clarinettist Sabine Meyer playing Nielsen's Clarinet Concerto with the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra, conducted by Sir Simon Rattle.
