Wow! Saint-Saens' Third Symphony No.3 in C minor: live performance.
Colloquially "The Organ Symphony" due to that instrument's major role in it.
Live performance, BBC Symphony Orchestra, Anna Lapwood the organist; Conductor: Geoffrey Peterson.
The performance was under the auspices of the Hanley-Barber Institute's lunctime concert series that has been running for eighty years, we were told, in Birmingham.
I think I heard and quoted the orchestra correctly, but the Radio Times names the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra.
Anna Lapwood is one of many musicians particularly keen on schools providing music education, which has been steadily eroded over the last several decades. She is also very busy as a transcriber and performer, playing Classical as well as Modern-era such as Saint-Saens' music, and Contemporary, especially film scores, and is due to give performances of film music in the USA.
