London's Classic FM was launched five years ago to provide an alternative to BBC Radio 3, the government-sponsored classical music station. One of five full-time orchestras the BBC employs is the BBC Symphony Orchestra, which just completed a US tour. Andrew Davis conducts the orchestra in a performance of "Brigg Fair" by Frederick Delius. It's from a concert they gave at the Kennedy Center Concert Hall in Washington, DC on October 22nd. (BBC/NPR)
