The NDR Elbphilharmonie Orchestra and conductor Juraj Valcuha play Prokofiev's Symphony no.5. There's also music by Ruth Gipps, Bach, Ravel and Richard Strauss

Presented by Ian Skelly.

The most imposing of Prokofiev's seven symphonies, he wrote it in just a few weeks towards the end of the Second World War, intending it as "a hymn to free and happy Man, to his mighty powers, his pure and noble spirit."
