大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra on tour

The 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra perform Shostakovich's Piano Concerto No 2 and Mahler's Symphony No 4 at the Edinburgh Festival. Plus, Grieg, Faure and choral music by Joanna Marsh.

Shostakovich's Piano Concerto No.2 and Mahler's 4th Symphony from the 2019 Edinburgh International Festival, plus more choral music by Joanna Marsh from The 大象传媒 Singers, and a further concert given at Maida Vale Studios by the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra, featuring Louise Farrenc's Overture No.1, Grieg's Piano Concerto in A minor and Faure's Pelleas et Melisande.

Presented by Kate Molleson.

Continuing with recordings taken from the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra's recent touring activities, today we hear Shostakovich's Piano Concerto No.2 with soloist Kirill Gerstein, and Mahler's Symphony No.4 with soprano Christina Gansch, given at a concert at Edinburgh's Usher Hall as part of this year's Edinburgh Festival.
The afternoon continues with another recording of choral music by Joanna Marsh - Weighing the Earth - made by the 大象传媒 Singers under conductor Owain Park.
And we end the programme with a recent concert given by the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra at Maida Vale Studios in London, including the dramatic Overture No.1 by Louise Farrenc, Grieg's much-loved Piano Concerto in A minor with soloist Elizabeth Brauss, and Faure's intensely romantic Pelleas et Melisande, all conducted by Francois Leleux.
