Episode 2

Clemency Burton-Hill introduces the second of four programmes showcasing the talents of Radio 3's starry line-up of New Generation Artists. Now in its 15th year, the New Generation Artists scheme brings listeners the very best of emerging British and international talent. The 'NGAs' are offered many opportunities to perform in chamber concerts and with the BBC orchestras; every day this week we hear the fruits of their work in the studio, in recordings made specially for Radio 3.

Today violinist Elena Urioste treats us to a clutch of favourite violin encores, the Apollon Musagète Quartet perform an arrangement of Prokofiev's piano Visions Fugitives, British mezzo-soprano Kitty Whately sings songs by Brahms, and Louis Schwizgebel, second prizewinner at the 2012 Leeds International Piano Competition, plays Beethoven's ever-popular 'Moonlight' Sonata.
