"written by Israela Margalit, the eminent pianistin and author," really eminent?

Wow I'm really surprised they didn't play the 5th symphony really at all, except for those couple seconds. That's good, I think everybody knows that piece, and it's better that we become more familiar with some of Beethoven's other symphonies, like the one they played after, his 8th, which I seem to be the only one that knows it, anytime I tell them and let them listen to it, it's always their first time hearing it!

It isn't your fault that you uploaded a video from an original broadcast that unfortunately made an elementary error. The great Peter Ustinov would have been aghast at such an oversight in an otherwise excellent and informative programme.

That's the 5th symphony, I believe it's the first movement.

Hey whats the first song 00:57 ?????!
Unfortunately, there is a mistake at 2:05-2:08. This is NOT the Allegretto scherzando of the 8th Symphony (2nd mvmt), but Tempo di menuetto (3rd mvmt).
Besides, I think the Allegretto scherzando would be better here, because of the metronome-like, regular staccato string ticking during almost all movement. Look also for the "Ta-ta-ta lieber Maelzel" canon WoO 162.
Greetings from Poland - great idea to put in these videos!

You are a most observant viewer/listener my friend in Poland !
Unfortunately I'm not able to make changes in the video. Let's see if there are other as observant out there.
Happy new year to you !
