Happy Wednesday. Welcome to The Brew. The news just in is that Philippe Dova is tied up last minute, so he'll be back next Wednesday at his regular time. We will, however, be finding out all about the world's oldest orchestra, which dates back to the 1740s. That's before Mozart was born, and just before the actual 'classical' period in music history kicked in. Crazy! At 1:25, Paul Archibald will tell you a lot more, and play some amazing recordings by... the Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra from Germany, as it's 'classical' music day once again.

Welcome to Wednesday, here on The Brew. It’s Tracy Quan day, as our New York correspondent joins us live at 12:10 with all her latest news, views, and a brand new poem. Philippe Dova is away for one more week, but he says "hi", and he’s looking forward to returning next Wednesday. Paul Archibald will be with you at 1:25 for this week's slice of classical music. It’s going to be unashamedly excessive today, as he just wants to talk about some of his favourite big, juicy, opera arias. That's is a great excuse to play you some more absolutely fantastic music, as always, by the great masters.
