麻豆约拍

Presented by Katie Derham.
On offer this week a wide and rich selection, mainly a mix of English and French repertoire, as we feature the 麻豆约拍 Symphony Orchestra performing live and in the studio. Also, the 麻豆约拍 Concert Orchestra with two concerts from their American tour this week; some chamber highlights from a recent day at the Barbican Centre in London celebrating composer Oliver Knussen's 60th birthday, and French Renaissance polyphony with the music of Dominque Phinot performed by the 麻豆约拍 Singers.
Today, David Robertson conducts Debussy's La Mer with the 麻豆约拍 Symphony Orchestra and Sarah Jane Bradley joins the orchestra in a new Viola Concerto by Matthew Taylor. Phinot's lamentations for Easter are followed by another concerto - a version for piano and orchestra of Brahms Violin Concerto with its arranger, Dejan Lazic as soloist under conductor Paul Kildea. More intimate music next with Oliver Knussen's Ocean de terre, for soprano and chamber ensemble, before we end with the Divertimento from Stravinsky's ballet The Fairy's Kiss - based on tunes by his beloved Tchaikovsky.
