The Cleveland Orchestra and Chorus
Thursday 5 January 2006 22:30-0:00 (Radio 3)
Continuing the special series of highlights from the summer Proms. 'From the heart, may it reach to the heart', runs Beethoven's inscription on the score of his uniquely dramatic and highly personal setting of the Mass. Making their second appearance at the Proms, The Cleveland Orchestra and Chorus took up the challenge of this all-encompassing work.
Presented by Sarah Walker, recorded at the Royal Albert Hall.
