  (19) Katia & Marielle Labèque (pno duo), BBC SO/Semyon Bychkov

  Making a welcome return following their three appearances in 2009, Katia and Marielle Labèque perform a dramatic piece designed to bring out their contrasting personalities. The Battlefield Concerto was specially written for them by French-Swiss composer and double bass player, Richard Dubugnon

  Semyon Bychkov, who conducted the work's recent Los Angeles première, here sandwiches it between two classics, the most famous of all unfinished symphonies and the glorious musical autobiography (with battle scene) of a composer who lived long in difficult times
