I will be listening again to last night's Mahler 3 from La Scala and Zubin Mehta. Given the time of the broadcast, I could not listen at the volume it calls for. What I did hear impressed me greatly. The night bird calls' hinaufziehen – wie ein Naturlaut are executed most evocatively and the slow build towards the final peroration of the sixth movement is beautifully handled. Well worth catching.

This is a delight: really puts a smile on my face.

Jean-Philippe Rameau (1683-1764)
L'Apotheose de la Danse - orchestral suite of dance music by Rameau
Les Musiciens du Louvre, Marc Minkowski (conductor)
It is the 2003 Proms performance of Minkowski's selection of Rameau dances, which was broadcast again in this year's repeats season.
There was a commercial recording but as far as I can tell, it's been deleted.

... it's back!
Turning on at 5:20 this morning anticipating the awfulness of Tearjerker, Piano Flow, or Happy Harmonies and ready to switch to the World Service - Mozart (attrib) wind music, and then Catriona Young introducing Vivaldi. And the website informing me that I was listening to Through the Night ..
Is this a result of the demise of the Dook? Or a silent admission of a misjudgment by R3 management?

Ernst Mielck String Quintet in F major, Op 3
The kind of thing that Through the Night is really good at. For me an unknown composer, but really inventive and with novel forms of logic. Apparently he died at the age of 22, or else.....

IIRC from Humphrey Carpenter's book, the founding father was Donald Macleod.
