蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra Prom plus music from the Kurt Weill Festival
Tom McKinney with highlights from the Kurt Weill Festival foregrounding music across the centuries by women composers plus a chance to hear Harvey, Elgar and Holst at the Proms.
Today鈥檚 Classical Live includes another chance to hear last Saturday night鈥檚 Prom featuring contralto Jess Dandy, cellist Senja Rummukainen, the 蜜芽传媒 Symphony Chorus and 蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Sakari Oramo. The performance of Holst鈥檚 The Cloud Messenger marks 150 years since the composer's birth. Also in the programme, Elgar鈥檚 ever-popular, bittersweet Cello Concerto and the gentle exhalations of Jonathan Harvey鈥檚 Tranquil Abiding, inspired by Buddhist meditation.
To start today鈥檚 Classical Live, there will be exclusively recorded performances from the Berlin Chamber Orchestra. Part of a concert recorded at the Kurt Weill Festival in Dessau earlier this year exploring music from across the centuries by women composers.
