Today's Classical Live begins with a recital from London鈥檚 Wigmore Hall featuring pianists Alessio Bax and Lucille Chung. The married couple whose meeting at the 1997 Hamamatsu Competition has led to a remarkable musical partnership, will perform music by Schubert, Poulenc, Debussy and Piazzolla.

This week, there will also be a focus on classical music from Denmark including Bach from the Copenhagen Baroque Festival and the Danish National Symphony Orchestra performing Bernstein's Serenade, after Plato's 'Symposium'.

Also in today's programme, a specially recorded performance from the Castalian Quartet at this year's Cowbridge Music Festival in Wales; and the 大象传媒 Singers mark Remembrance Day with a performance of Herbert Howells' heartfelt 'Requiem'.
