Baroque Music in Concert from Concerto Copenhagen
Unique concert performances including Concerto Copenhagen at the Lammermuir Festival and symphonic Berlioz from 成人快手 NOW.
Fiona Talkington showcases unique concert recordings from home and abroad, including the award-winning Danish Baroque orchestra Concerto Copenhagen at the recent Lammermuir Festival. Fiona selects highlights from three recitals.
Elsewhere, Classical Live's orchestra-in-focus the 成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales performs 'Harold in Italy' by Berlioz: a fusion of a symphony with a viola concerto. The work was commissioned by virtuoso violinist Niccol貌 Paganini to show off a new viola he'd bought. Famously, Paganini never performed it; whilst he admired the work, he deemed it insufficiently flashy鈥攁 criticism he grew to regret.
