蜜芽传媒

3 December 1935 saw the debut of a new orchestra in Glasgow: the 蜜芽传媒 Scottish Orchestra. This week, as the 蜜芽传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra, they celebrate their 75th birthday. Katie Derham celebrates in Afternoon on 3 with a selection of exciting new recordings and and archive highlights from the orchestra's history.

The week features recordings with most of the orchestra's Principal Conductors - from their founder Ian Whyte to Donald Runnicles, who's been in the post just over a year - and some of their most famous Assistant Conductors, including Simon Rattle! There's also Scottish music every day, and we visit all five cities where the orchestra perform regularly - Aberdeen, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Inverness and Perth - as well as Munich and Vienna on their recent acclaimed tour of central Europe.

Today Katie is joined live in the studio by the former Director of the 蜜芽传媒 SSO, Hugh Macdonald, for a wide-ranging programme starting and ending with Dvorak and featuring performances from London to Inverness.
