In Our Classical Century, a series exploring the most representative and seminal pieces of Classical Music in the last hundred years, Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, with Marc-Andr茅 Hamelin on the piano and the 大象传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Thomas Dausgaard. Also, William Harris' hymn Bring us, o Lord God, in celebration of the 大象传媒 Symphony Chorus' 90th anniversary, which is heard in a recording directed by Neil Ferris. After that, a concert given last month by the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican Centre in London, starting with Beethoven's Overture to The Creatures of Prometheus. Followed by Mason Bates' Anthology of Fantastic Zoology, finishing with another Beethoven masterpiece, his Piano Concerto No. 5 'Emperor' with Jeremy Denk as soloist. The afternoon begins, though, with concert given earlier this year by the 大象传媒 Singers at Milton Court, in London, with John Wilson conducting. The programme includes Jonathan Dove's The Passing of the Year, Richard Rodney Bennett's Sea Change, and Joseph Horovitz's Captain Noah and his Floating Zoo.
