BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra perform Debussy's La Mer

Linton Stephens presents an afternoon of exceptional music-making with highlights from the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra, looking forward to its appearances at this year's BBC Proms. The programme features Britten's Suite on English Folk Tunes, a poignant and nostalgic reflection on traditional melodies; Debussy's La Mer, a shimmering orchestral masterpiece that vividly captures the changing moods and power of the sea; and Amy Beach's Gaelic Symphony , a richly Romantic and deeply expressive work inspired by Irish folk traditions.
From LSO St Luke’s, pianist Simon Crawford-Phillips is joined by violinists Malin Broman and Lawrence Power, continuing his week of chamber performance. And also specially recorded items from the National Centre for Early Music and BBC R3 New Generation Baroque Ensemble - Ensemble Augelletti
