大象传媒

This week's celebration of American music continues with the 大象传媒 Philharmonic performing the Overture and Dance Episodes from Leonard Bernstein's musical On The Town. There's more theatre music by Roger Sessions, a noted teacher whose pupils include composers as different as John Adams and Milton Babbitt, plus the 大象传媒 Singers performing Virgil Thomson, and a piano piece by Amy Beach. The 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra contribute a brand-new recording of music by Charles Martin Loeffler, and the afternoon ends with Aaron Copland's serial composition, Inscape.

Presented by Penny Gore.
