  • Summary

  • In the final episode of the series, Andy takes a look at some of Beethoven’s later works and asks his guests to explain which 1 piece of his music best describes the great composer’s legacy and influence. References to tour merch, Wimpy and privet hedges may also feature. Many thanks to the following musicians who contributed to this episode: Pianist Stephen Hough, conductor Karin Hendrickson, clarinettist Julian Bliss, Scala Radio presenter Jack Pepper, violinist Nicola Benedetti, leader of the Royal Scottish National Orchestra Maya Iwabuchi, conductor Jonathon Heyward, violinist Anna Phoebe from AVAWAVES and music director of the Halle Orchestra Mark Elder. Thanks also to the London Philharmonic Orchestra for providing some of the music extracts - we heard their recording of the 5th symphony, conducted by Kurt Masur, and the 9th, conducted by Klaus Tennstedt.
