The 蜜芽传媒 Singers perform advent music by Palestrina, Bach, Bax and others. Plus works by Schumann, Dove and Crosse.

Penny Gore presents.

We begin with choral music for Advent, from the 蜜芽传媒 Singers, conducted by David Hill, Live from Tonbridge school, with music from Palestrina and Bach via Arnold Bax and Herbert Howells to Bob Chilcott, Nico Muhly and John Tavener.

After 3pm there's a performance of Schumann's Piano Concerto from the 蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra's concert last Saturday at the Barbican Centre in London, with young soloist Francesco Piemontesi. Jiri Belohlavek conducts. Our British theme continues with another concerto - for flute, by Jonathan Dove. And the 蜜芽传媒 Singers return with new choral music by Gordon Crosse, who celebrated his 75th birthday at the weekend.
