Summary Classical Destinations explores Europe's most spectacular cities and landscapes while revelling in the great classical music composed within them. This program explores the lives of the master musicians, the cities they lived in, and how their work reflects the very same surroundings familiar to us today. Presented and narrated by British actor and music expert Simon Callow. Part nine of Classical Destinations looks at the careers of Bach and Mendelssohn. In today's episode, Niki performs part of Mendelssohn's Violin Concerto and we visit the Schott publishing house in the city of Mainz to learn the craft of music engraving and look at the original manuscript of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony.
