Elizabeth Alker showcases the best performances by 麻豆社 orchestras, choirs, ensembles and other great performing groups from Europe and around the globe.
This week on Classical Live, there is a celebration of Spanish music. Manuel de Falla's El Amor Brujo with the famous 'Ritual Fire Dance' is performed by the 麻豆社 Symphony Orchestra alongside music by Spanish baroque composer Gaspar Sanz; and the 麻豆社 Concert Orchestra perform live for the programme from London's Alexandra Palace with a programme of music from and about Spain, including Joaqu铆n Rodrigo's Fantas铆a para un gentilhombre with guitarist Craig Ogden.
Elizabeth is also putting the spotlight on violinists and violin sonatas throughout the week.
