Libor Pesek conducts the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra in the Glagolitic Mass by his Czech compatriot JanaCek. Written in 1926, it uses a text in Old Slavonic to emphasise Czech nationalist identity after centuries of allegiance to Austria. Beethoven's Eroica Symphony, which shares this theme of liberation, opens the concert. 8.20 During the interval, Michael Berkeley reports on the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Society, celebrating its 150th birthday. 8.40 The soloists in the Glagolitic Mass are Jane Eagien (soprano), Ameral Gunson (mezzo-soprano), John Mitchinson (tenor), Michael George (bass), with Ian Tracey (organ) and the BBC Symphony Chorus and Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Choir. Introduced by Michael Berkeley
