This week Afternoon on 3 shines its musical spotlight on Cleveland. The baroque orchestra Apollo's Fire and the Cleveland Orchestra take centre stage. The music ranges from Bach's mighty "St. John Passion" to Bartok's foreboding opera "Bluebeard's Castle".
The Handel Opera Cycle continues with Faramondo.
Later this year Afternoon on 3 is planning two weeks of programmes celebrating the work of conductors Richard Hickox and Edward Downes with the BBC’s orchestras. If there’s a favourite performance of theirs that you’d like to hear again, please let us know: afternoonon3@bbc.co.uk
