Penny Gore presents some recent performances by the 大象传媒 Philharmonic. And the 大象传媒 Singers continue their exploration of five centuries of choral music written for British Royal occasions - with music today by WIlliam Matthias and William Walton. Also this week there's the chance to discover the rarely performed the orchestral music of Carl Maria von Weber - who died in London in 1826.
