Presented by Petroc Trelawny.

Michael Collins draws together a coterie of top-flight soloists, combining Mozart's genial 'Kegelstatt' Trio with the masterful Clarinet Quintet. Messiaen, who believed that Mozart smiled through his hardships, triumphed over his own adversity in 1941 by composing the haunting Quartet for the End of Time while held as a prisoner of war in Silesia.
