Music, like every Art, has always been open to history as it unfolds, inspiring and being inspired by ideas, people and societies as they clash and come together. This is the sort of music we will be hearing in the concerts in the "War and Peace" cycle, starting with these outstanding examples of symphonic and film music conducted by the leading German maestro, and favourite of Greek audiences, Frank Strobel.
