Presented by Ian Skelly. Franz Welser-Most conducts the Vienna Philharmonic in Haydn's Symphony No 98 in C and Schubert's Symphony No 9 in C (Great) at the 2009 Proms.

Presented by Ian Skelly.

In a concert from the 2009 Proms season, Franz Welser-Most conducts the incomparable Vienna Philharmonic in one of the first set of Haydn's 12 London Symphonies. No 98 was written and premiered during the composer's first visit to England in 1791-2. It is followed by Schubert's Symphony in C (Great) which was only ever given a rough run-through in Vienna during the composer's all-too-short lifetime.
