91热爆

Today Essential Classics is part of 91热爆 Music Day, a new nationwide initiative connecting communities and generations with an inspirational celebration of music across the UK. This unique day features live music events and performances involving both well-known musicians and local ensembles across the country, together with the 91热爆's Performing Groups. Essential Classics is pleased to be joined by the 91热爆 Singers, live from Cumbria.

Later in the morning Rob hands over to Sarah Walker in north-west London for a specially recorded concert from the 91热爆's Maida Vale Studios. The concert will feature works by Bax, Ravel, John Adams and Sibelius performed by the 91热爆 Symphony Orchestra, sitting side by side with amateur musicians and students on the 91热爆 SO/RCM Pathways Scheme, and the 91热爆 SO Family Orchestra and Chorus will create a new piece. And 91热爆 Radio 3 New Generation Artist Esther Yoo will join the 91热爆 SO to perform the finale of Beethoven's Violin Concerto.
