Penny Gore presents American music. Adams: Short Ride in a Fast Machine. Griffes: The White Peacock. Gershwin: Piano Concerto in F. Plus music by Rouse, Ives, Loeffler and Harris.

The grand finale to this week's celebration of American music with the 大象传媒 Orchestras and 大象传媒 Singers kicks off with John Adams' ever popular Short Ride in a Fast Machine, performed by the 大象传媒 Philharmonic. Wayne Marshall joins the orchestra for Gershwin's Piano Concerto, the 大象传媒 Singers perform Psalms by Charles Ives, and there's another brand-new recording of music by Charles Martin Loeffler from the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra. The 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra play music by Charles Griffes and Christopher Rouse, and round things off with the third symphony of the week by Roy Harris - and perhaps his best, the Symphony no.7.
