	BBC Philharmonic Beethoven Symphonies
		Gianandrea and the BBC Philharmonic had an unprecedented triumph with their Beethoven Symphony Cycle, ‘The Beethoven Experience', in concert, which was broadcast on BBC Radio 3 and then in a unique action, available for download for one week, for which they won a coveted South Bank Show Award.
		The BBC Philharmonic is based in Manchester where it performs regularly in the magnificent Bridgewater Hall, while also touring all over the world and recording programmes for BBC Radio 3.
		The BBC Philharmonic has worked with many distinguished conductors and its policy of introducing new and adventurous repertoire into its programmes has meant that many of the world's greatest composers have conducted the orchestra.

	BBC Symphony Orchestra - Biography - AOL Music
		Because of this, the BBC Symphony Orchestra has been able to present a large body of new or lesser-known works that might be considered too avant-garde for many of the world's other major orchestras.
		Not one to be discouraged, Boult set about revitalizing the BBC Symphony Orchestra with a broadcast consisting entirely of British music on the newly created BBC Radio 3 channel in September 1946 and by taking the orchestra on a European tour in 1947.
		The BBC also commissioned and premiered several pieces by composers such as Roberto Gerhard during the 1960s in an effort to elevate the international status of the orchestra.

	BBC Philharmonic (Symphony Orchestra) - Short History
		In 1930, the BBC decided to establish a national orchestra, in the form of the London based BBC Symphony Orchestra and reduced its commitment to regional orchestras.
		In 1933 the BBC realised that the Symphony Orchestra alone could not meet the demand for serious broadcast music and that a solution to this would be to re-expand the regional orchestras.
		In 1982 it was announced that the BBC Northern Symphony Orchestra would be augmented over two years to a playing strength of 90, and that it would in future be known as the BBC Philharmonic.

		It is remarkable to think that the musical phenomenon we now know as the BBC Philharmonic began life as a twelve-piece orchestra playing for a radio station called 2ZY on the Trafford Park Industrial Estate, Manchester in 1922.
		After a short period as the Northern Wireless Orchestra, the BBC Northern Orchestra, which was to become the BBC Northern Symphony Orchestra, was born and held its own for decades against constant threats of disbandment until 1982 when it was expanded and triumphantly renamed the BBC Philharmonic.
		The BBC Philharmonic has also recently enhanced its international reputation with visits to the Far East and both North and South America.

		Hickox brings out the originality of all these works--the whole point of Grainger is his exploration of musical sound worlds and the BBC Philharmonic have the virtuosity required to do him justice.
		Hickox also remembers that Grainger was a man of his time and place--sentimentality is a part of what this music is for as well, as long as it is not laid on with a trowel.

		You have to struggle to find an Italian connection with Prokofiev's War and Peace overture, although the opera was premiered in Florence, but holding the whole thing together was the BBC Philharmonic's Milanese Principal Conductor Gianandrea Noseda.
		It is delightfully light and childlike, beginning in the flutes and repeated in the percussion, then strings, before the work comes to a solemn close.

		With items such as Massenet's gorgeous The Last Sleep of the Virgin and Auber's fizzing overture to The Bronze Horse, Yan Pascal Tortelier boldly enters the territory of such legends of the podium as Sir Thomas Beecham and Paul Paray, yet it's some measure of his success that he survives the comparison with ease.
		What's more, the BBC Philharmonic responds with exemplary dash, flair and polish throughout, their playing exquisitely tender and ideally boisterous by turns (just try the truly exhilarating rendering of Chabrier's Joyeuse marche with which proceedings close--surely the best in many a long year).

	Stanford: Stabat Mater, Etc / Hickox, Bbc Philharmonic \| ArkivMusic
		Known to the public as a composer and conductor of the Leeds Philharmonic, he was also, in his capacity as Professor of Composition at the Royal College of Music, mentor to an important generation of emergent English composers, including Gustav Holst and Ralph Vaughan Williams.
		In addition, he was director of the Leeds Triennial Choral Festival, which served to further the English oratorio tradition, and it is to that tradition that much of his music belongs.
		It was highly esteemed by Vaughan Williams and bears some similarities to that composer's 'Sea Symphony' or Elgar's 'Dream of Gerontius.' Richard Hickox directs the BBC Philharmonic, the very appropriately chosen Leeds Philharmonic Chorus and a colorful quartet of soloists in this grandly affectionate performance, captured for the work's first recording in sumptuous Chandos sound.
