Dec 5 The Requiem of Hector Berlioz
Described as one of the most expansive audio experiences in the classical world - Berlioz's Requiem was commissioned in memory of French Soldiers who died in Algeria
Ludwig van Beethoven: 7. Sinfonie A-Dur, op. 92
Die Siebte war für Beethoven der wohl größte Erfolg seiner Karriere. Das Sinfonie strotzt vor rhythmischem Elan. Das berühmte "Allegretto" diente als Soundtrack in unzähligen Filmen. Und die Uraufführung war eine politische Demonstration gegen die Unterdrückung Europas durch Napoleon. (Autor: Michael Lohse) Von Michael Lohse.
Berlioz & de liefde: Eline Groslot (harp)
Hevig verliefd pent Hector Belioz zijn Symphonie Fantastique neer - en schrijft daarmee een baanbrekend nieuw werk. Harpiste Eline Groslot vertelt aan Sander De Keere hoe onconformistisch Berlioz was, zowel in zijn muziek als qua persoonlijkheid, maar bijvoorbeeld ook door het toen nieuwe instrument dat de harp was een prominente plaats te geven.

Leonard Bernstein: West Side Story
Das Musical aus dem Jahr 1957 ist die vielleicht mitreißendste Adaption von Shakespeares "Rome und Julia" der Musikgeschichte, nur eben verlegt von Verona nach New York und mit Tony und Maria als tragisches Liebespaar. Der gefragte Star-Dirigent Bernstein fand lange nicht die Zeit, seine geniale Idee umzusetzen, dann aber landete er einen Welterfolg. (Autor: Martin Zingsheim) Von Martin Zingsheim.
Ep 20: The Aristocats

Beethoven and more podcast #30: Sounds of revolution
Three outstanding ensembles join forces on stage to present Hector Berlioz' last symphony near the close of the Beethovenfest 2010.Hector Berlioz (1803-1869)
Grande Symphonie funebre et triomphale, op. 15 H80: Apotheose
Philharmonic Chorus Bonn
Music Corps of the German Armed Forces, Siegburg
Beethoven Orchestra Bonn
Conductor: Stefan Blunier
MP3 recorded in the Beethoven Hall, Bonn on October 8, 2010 by West German Radio, Cologne (WDR)
Three ensembles drawn from the region around Beethovenfest host city Bonn take the stage in this unusual work: Bonn's Philharmonic Choir, the Music Corps of the Armed Forces from nearby Siegburg and the Beethoven Orchestra Bonn. They join forces in a powerful rendition of the Grand Funeral and Triumphal Symphony by Hector Berlioz.
The symphony commemorates the French Revolution of 1830, in which King Charles X was overthrown. It was commissioned and originally performed ten years after the revolution as the graves of those who died were moved to the historical Place de la Bastille, the site where the first French Revolution of 1789 broke out.
In the final movement, Berlioz invokes the full range of the revolution's drama and bloodshed. Cymbals clash and snares flare as the choir sings, "Glory and triumph for these heroes, whose graves lie in the fields of the motherland!"
