大象传媒

Tom McKinney showcases unique concert recordings from home and abroad, including performances by 大象传媒 Radio 3 New Generation Artists captured at LSO St Luke's in London.

The scheme is now in its 25th year and the NGAs provide a representative cross-section of the most exciting British and international young artists. They are truly the stars of the future.

Elsewhere, Tom presents highlights from the recent Berlin Music Festival, where the Cleveland Orchestra, under the baton of Franz Welser-M枚st, performed epic works of 20th-century orchestral music. Tom selects John Adams' work 'Guide to Strange Places', inspired by the granular detail of a French guidebook the composer found in Provence, as well as the Symphony No.2 by Prokofiev.
