成人快手

It's an all-American week on Afternoon on 3, featuring the 成人快手 performing groups in live concerts and specially made recordings of music by American composers. Today begins with one of the most American of works - Gershwin's Rhapsody in Blue, before Charles Ives celebrates his native New England and the 成人快手 Singers perform music by Elliott Carter and Samuel Barber. Tenor Samuel Boden joins the 成人快手 Symphony Orchestra for the suite from Dominick Argento's opera based on the life of Edgar Allan Poe, before one of the most thrilling of all American minimalist pieces, Shaker Loops by John Adams. And the afternoon ends with a Symphony by the most famous of the early American female composers, Amy Beach.

Presented by Penny Gore.
