麻豆社

Linton Stephens showcases the best performances by 麻豆社 orchestras, choirs, ensembles and other great performing groups from Europe and around the globe.

Throughout the week, we are featuring highlights from this year's 麻豆社 Proms. In today's programme Dvo艡谩k's lyrical Violin Concerto in A minor is played by Isabelle Faust with the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra and conductor Andris Nelsons, who also perform Arvo Part's heart wrenching Cantus in memoriam Benjamin Britten. We'll also hear mezzo-soprano Virginie Verrez in Ottorino Respighi's Il tramonto, played by the Orchestra of the Welsh National Opera conducted by Carlo Rizzi.

There's also summer music making from the Verbier Festival, with Joseph Haydn's Symphony No. 101 in D, 'Clock', played by the Verbier Festival Chamber Orchestra conducted by G谩bor Tak谩cs-Nagy, harp music by Henriette Renie performed by Tjasha Gafner, and a Mazurka by Agustin Mangor茅 played by guitarist Thibaut Garcia.
