: Solti and Perahia Play Bartok
Fifty years ago, BELA BARTOK and his wife DITTA PASZTORY gave the first performance of his Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion in Budapest. Hungarian-born conductorSir Georg Solti , then 25 years old, turned the pages for Mrs Bartok as she played. Half a century later, in his first filmed performance as a pianist, Sir Georg, American virtuoso Murray Perahia and British percussionists Evelyn Glennie and David Corkhill produce a historic recording of this
20th-century masterwork at the Maltings Concert Hall near Aldeburgh.
The film observes the musicians at work during the marathon CBS recording sessions, interspersed with Sir Georg's reminiscences of his former teacher, and concludes with a performance of the complete work. Executive producers

About this project
This site contains the BBC listings information which the BBC printed in Radio Times between 1923 and 2009. You can search the site for BBC programmes, people, dates and Radio Times editions.
We hope it helps you find information about that long forgotten BBC programme, research a particular person or browse your own involvement with the BBC.
Through the listings, you will also be able to use the Genome search function to find thousands of radio and TV programmes that are already available to view or listen to on the BBC website.
There are more than 5 million programme listings in Genome. This is a historical record of the planned output and the BBC services of any given time. It should be viewed in this context and with the understanding that it reflects the attitudes and standards of its time - not those of today.
To read scans of the Radio Times magazines from the 1920s, 30s, 40s and 50s, you can navigate by issue.
