RADIO NOTES
Marin Alsop conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus at the Barbican in an all-Glass programme, including the UK premiere of his Concerto written for renowned piano duo Katia and Marielle Labèque.

As a young violinist, Marin Alsop led the orchestra in the first recording of Glass's The Photographer and has long championed the influential Minimalist's music. She also conducts Itaipú, Glass's choral homage to the world's largest hydroelectric dam, and the prelude to the opera Ahknaten, about the Egyptian pharaoh.

NOTES
Recorded live off air from the original BBC Radio Three broadcast during In Concert on 31st January 2017. Source was the BBC HLS 323kbps 48kHz internet stream. Unfortunatly, due to a faulty internet connection, approximately 7 minutes of the main source was missing. These have been patched in from a capture of the "listen again" stream.

Audition was used to increase levels by 2dB, edit, track and convert to FLAC/44.1kHz. FLAC tagging done using mp3tag and fingerprints generated using TLH.
