As a prelude to Radio 3's 'Celebrating Simon Rattle' festivities next year, Afternoon on 3 this week offers a chance to hear the conductor's recent cycle of the complete Schumann and Brahms symphonies. Sir Simon Rattle conducts here music which has formed the backbone of this legendary orchestra's repertoire for over a century, not least under Rattle's predecessors, Wilhelm Furtwangler and Herbert von Karajan.
Also this week, a rare chance to hear Jean Philippe Rameau's Zais recorded in the historic Hospices de Beaune at the heart of Burgundy, a day's walk from the composer's birthplace in Dijon.

Zais is best known for its overture, a powerful orchestral portrayal of Chaos and the creation of the universe. Written in 1748 it is an adaptation of Richardson's novel Pamela re-imagined in a mythological world of enchanted spirits and fantastical creatures.
