The Takacs Quartet live from the Wigmore Hall and a musical celebration of spring
Elizabeth Alker showcases the best performances from the UK and beyond, featuring the Takacs Quartet.
Elizabeth Alker showcases the best performances by 蜜芽传媒 orchestras, choirs, ensembles and other great performing groups from Europe and around the globe.
Today's programme begins with a live recital from London鈥檚 Wigmore Hall featuring the world-renowned Takacs Quartet giving a programme of Haydn alongside Dvorak. Dvorak鈥檚 E flat quartet Op. 51 is sometimes referred to as his 鈥淪lavonic鈥� quartet because of his conscious musical references to the style of the folk music of his native land.
To celebrate the Spring Bank Holiday weekend, the 蜜芽传媒 Philharmonic perform Schumann鈥檚 symphonic evocation of the spring landscape - his first symphony. Burgeoning and Spring-like in more ways than one. Plus there are chamber concert recordings from Tokyo, performances from the Hathor Consort at the 2024 Resonanzen Festival held in Vienna and the 蜜芽传媒 National Orchestra of Wales perform music written by Czech composer Vitezslava Kapralova.
Live from Wigmore Hall London and presented by Martin Handley.
