Friday Night Is Music Night

RADIO 2, 8.00PM

Pull a warm cloak around your shoulders for this Friday Night Is Music Night,

where the beginning of December is marked with a toast of something mulled to all things wintry and frosty. And musical, of course. Ken Bruce hosts the BBC Concert Orchestra conducted by Bramwell Tovey in a programme of icy and atmospheric music, including pieces from

Dr Zhivago, Rimsky

Korsakov’s The Snow Maiden, Waldteufel’s Skaters Waltz, and The Nutcracker, Tchaikovsky’s essential Christmas classic.
