Then we have Purcell's overture to his King Arthur. Contemporary next - Triangle by Canadian composer Ana Sokolovic. Then Hamish MacCunn's The Land of the Mountain and the Flood followed by some Jani?ek quartet - exquisite. Then something almost medieval for flute and pipes leading into a couple of wild cards - a secret. The hour ends with some of Bruckner's 4th.I hope you can join me to listen.Both Channel 292 and WBCQ do live streams if the reception is poor in your location.
