Episodes three and four of “Symphony”, the award-winning collaboration between the BBC and the music department, will be shown this Friday (7 June) and next (14 June) at 8pm on BBC4. Episode three is entitled “New Nations, New Worlds,” and the final part “Revolution and Rebirth.”
The series, which won several awards, was produced as a collaboration between BBC4 television, the Open University Music Department (with Robert Samuels as lead academic), BBC Orchestras, Radio 3, and the BBC Symphony Orchestra Learning division. Essays on the associated website were contributed by OU music department members Robert Samuels, Fiona Richards, and Ben Winters.
