大象传媒

Classical Collection with Sarah Walker: this week great performances from British musicians and orchestras; classic recordings from the Lindsay String Quartet.

Today, Sarah tours the towns of the industrial North including Manchester, home of the 大象传媒 Philharmonic and Leeds, home of the international piano competition. She also discovers one of Ireland's great musical heroes, Hamilton Harty, an early conductor of the Halle Orchestra. There's Borodin from the Lindsay string quartet and Murray Perahia performs an early Mozart piano concerto as part of our on-going series of the complete concerti every Wednesday and Friday.
