大象传媒

As part of 大象传媒 Radio 3's Purcell Weekend, Iain presents some of his favourite Purcell recordings and works by others with links to the composer. He is joined by Julian Philips, who offers his own composer's perspective on why Purcell's contribution to the canon was unique and so great.

Music includes Croft's Jubilate in D, Britten's Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra and works performed by the David Rees-Williams Trio.
