Happy Wednesday, and welcome to your midweek Brew. At 12:10 New York correspondent Tracy Quan bring you all her latest. Then, at 12:40, a little trip to Osaka, where we'll catch up with RTL France's man in... Japan (this week), Philippe Dova. At 1:25 we'll pull over in Bangkok, as Wednesday is always... 'classical' music day with Paul Archibald. Today he wants to take you a little 'left field' and introduce you to the famous American composer Charles Ives. In his heyday this guy was a piece of work (tonally), but today we'll have a listen to some of his earlier pieces, which date from the late 1800s. Don't worry, these ones have 'tunes'. Promise!
Every weekday afternoon from 12 until 2... Only on Radio 3
