#NowSpinning the first disc in Armin Jordan’s Icon box of ‘French Symphonic Music’. Gabriel Taccino takes to the keyboard for the Symphonic Variations. This seems pretty understated, though there is plenty of elegant poise.

Tickets are going fast for our programme of #Bach’s music for the Easter season, pairing two celebratory sacred works with one of his most familiar orchestral pieces @SalisburyCath with @salcathchoir under the baton of David Halls. Full details on shorturl.at/Kt3E2

Following in the footsteps of @LoveInner , this is one of my favorites from the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra: a performance of one of Stravinsky’s most significant yet relatively little-known ballets, *Orpheus*, and its impact on the New York City Ballet

Off to Cambridge this evening for some "Mozartian" Handel. A rare chance to hear Imeneo (the one with the "lion song" and the disparagement of Jennens): cambridgehandel.org.uk

Haydn's Surprise Symphony was first performed on this day in 1792 in the Hanover Square Rooms -below is the sudden fortissimo which gives it its name! The concert consisted of ten different works lasting over three hours

...bringing textural clarity. The big final climax avoids bombast, but is still very powerful indeed. But it's the shifting half-lights in the strings and that fluid sense of movement that really makes it work so well.

#BeechamStereo CD 1 opens with Sibelius's Oceanides. Beecham doesn't approach this as a tightly-argued symphonic work, but arguably lets it unfold more naturally than that. The shimmering mystery of Sibelius's fabulous score is very well-caught. Winds are very forward...

Simply... 341 years young...the DNA of the Music as we know

One of my absolute favourite versions of Bartók’s Romanian Folk Dances. They are delivered with such wit and rustic colour. Yet the refinement is astounding. Such a fabulous disc overall, actually.

The one and only Johann Sebastian Bach was born on this day 341 years ago. Happy birthday, Bach! 🐐 What’s your favourite piece by this composer?
