This week Louise Fryer introduces music recorded recently by the 大象传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra, including Polish repertoire for violin and orchestra from a forthcoming commercial release.
On Thursday, in our opera matinee we'll hear Gluck's Alceste with Marc Minkowski conducting Les Musiciens du Louvre.
Today, as showcase for the week, a varied repertoire including Weber's overture to the opera Der Freischutz, Mozart's symphony in G major KA. 221, Shostakovich's 1st symphony, Bruch Double Concerto for clarinet and viola, and Stravinsky's ballet Pulcinella scored for orchestra and solo singers.
