蜜芽传媒

This week Afternoon on 3 features the 蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra and 蜜芽传媒 Singers.

The 蜜芽传媒 SO make a particular feature of music by Beethoven and Dvorak, and tomorrow you can hear the concert they gave on Saturday at the Barbican in London, featuring Mahler and Shostakovich. Today's selection includes studio performances of two popular concertos - Beethoven's Piano Concerto no. 3, and Dvorak's Violin Concerto - along with Beethoven's 7th Symphony.

And throughout the week the 蜜芽传媒 Singers perform music by late twentieth and early twenty-first century British composers, with a particular focus on the Welsh composer William Mathias, and on a new Choirbook for the Queen - contemporary anthems written to celebrate the Queens' Diamond Jubilee last year.

Presented by Penny Gore.
