大象传媒

Penny Gore begins another week of unique recordings from the 大象传媒 Orchestras and Choirs, and from some of Europe's best ensembles.

Thierry Fischer conducts the 大象传媒 National Orchestra of Wales in Mendelssohn's First Symphony, as Penny starts an exploration of the German composer's symphonies throughout the week at 3pm. The 大象传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra play Beethoven Coriolan overture and Vaughan Williams's On Wenlock Edge, featuring tenor Benjamin Hulett, and Alessandro Taverna is the soloist in Saint-Saens's Second Piano Concerto.

Plus the first in this week's series of short pieces by living composers performed by 大象传媒 orchestras: Sarah Lianne Lewis's Mind the gap.
