Monday - Bach's Magnificat

Fiona Talkington begins a new week of recordings from around Europe with Vox Luminis and the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra performing Bach’s Magnificat.

Fiona Talkington introduces an afternoon of recordings from around Europe.

A new week of afternoon concert begins with a performance of Bach’s Magnificat, pairing the Belgian choir Vox Luminis and its director Lionel Meunier with Freiburg Baroque Orchestra. Fiona also has a new recording of the BBC Philharmonic with John Wilson and horn player Martin Owen, playing Richard Strauss’s first Horn concerto. Georgian virtuoso pianist Khatia Buniatishvili plays Haydn, and Freiburg Baroque Orchestra returns with Dvorak’s Rococo-inspired Wind serenade.
