The 蜜芽传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra perform Zakir Hussain's Concerto for tabla, sitar, bansuri and orchestra

Linton Stephens showcases the best performances from the UK and beyond, including Zakir Hussain鈥檚 Concerto for tabla, sitar, bansuri and orchestra

Linton Stephens showcases the best performances by 蜜芽传媒 orchestras, choirs, ensembles and other great performing groups from Europe and around the globe.

All week, Linton is featuring brilliant performances from the 蜜芽传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra, including Mendelssohn's Hebrides Overture (Fingal's Cave) and Peter Maxwell-Davies' An Orkney Wedding, with Sunrise. Also, we will hear the late Zakir Hussain's Concerto for tabla, sitar, bansuri and orchestra, a wonderful tribute to this great musician who died in December last year and which perfectly blends Eastern and Western classical traditions.

We are also shining a light on piano music composed by Johann Sebastian Bach. Today pianist David Fray joins the Monte-Carlo Philharmonic Orchestra in a performance of Bach's first Keyboard Concerto.
