To shed light on these literary texts, Tom Service is joined by Dr Julia Hartley, a Lecturer in Comparative Literature in the School of Modern Languages and Cultures at the University of Glasgow and a BBC/AHRC New Generation Thinker.

Tchaikovsky was no stranger to unhappiness in love, and his symphonic fantasy Francesca da Rimini allows us to eavesdrop on his pain in heart-rending autobiographical detail as the composer retells Dante’s tale of a noblewoman’s infidelity and subsequent casting into Hell. For their Prom, Vasily Petrenko and his Royal Philharmonic Orchestra plunge us deep into Tchaikovsky’s signature emotional turmoil after moonlit Debussy, Charles Ives’s own foray into American Impressionism and Ravel’s enthralling, jazz-inspired Piano Concerto under the fingers of the ferociously talented Denis Kozhukhin.

Presented by Tom Service live from the Royal Albert Hall, London.
