The 大象传媒 Philharmonic in symphonies by Britten and Bruckner, a concerto by Prokofiev, and more this week from "Bad Boy of Music" George Antheil

John Storgards leads the orchestra in Britten's reworking of his own younger self, his so-called "Simple" Symphony. The concert, recorded last month on the orchestra's tour in Utrecht, also features Bruckner's sixth symphony and the second of Prokofiev's two concertos for violin played by Arabella Steinbacher

And there's more from this week's featured composer, George Antheil - two of his symphonies
