Appalachian Spring: Marin Alsop's Berlin Philharmonic Debut
Tom McKinney with Finzi and Brahms, specially recorded in County Down, and Copland's 'Appalachian Spring' in concert.
Tom McKinney with specially recorded music from across the UK and Europe. Includes Finzi's famous 'Five Bagatelles'- a highlight from the recent 'Michael McHale and Friends' festival at the Portico of Ards.
Elsewhere, Tom continues a week-long celebration of contemporary women conductors, today shining the Classical Live Artist's Spotlight on one of the world's foremost conductors: Marin Alsop. Praised as a 'formidable musician and powerful communicator', Alsop last month became the first U.S.-born woman to conduct the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. Tom showcases highlights from that history-making concert, including a centrepiece performance of 'Appalachian Spring' by Aaron Copland.
