| Summary |
Classical Destinations explores Europe's most spectacular cities and landscapes while revelling in the great classical music composed within them. This program explores the lives of the master musicians, the cities they lived in, and how their work reflects the very same surroundings familiar to us today. Presented and narrated by British actor and music expert Simon Callow. In the series finale, Classical Destinations returns to St Petersburg to meet and review some significant figures in its history: Pushkin, Catherine the Great and Rasputin. Our last tour of the current series features the music of the composers Shostakovich and Tchaikovsky. (From Australia, in English) |
