The Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra and conductor Constantinos Carydis in Respighi's dazzling masterpiece, The Pines of Rome.

Presented by Fiona Talkington

Prepare to have your socks blown off! Respighi celebrated his country's capital with three magnificent orchestral showpieces, but this, charting areas of the city shaded by pine trees, is probably the best known. There's also music by Bach, Mendelssohn and Florence Price.
