Winter Showcase Episode 1

Specially recorded performances of music by Mozart, Schubert, Bach and Messiaen from Radio 3's current New Generation Artists - stars of the future.

Georgia Mann celebrates the prodigious musical talents of the current members of Radio 3's young artist scheme.
In this first Winter Showcase, the award-winning Scots jazz pianist Fergus McCreadie improvises on a favourite Schubert song as played by the Chaos Quartet. Also from that series of concerts, recorded at the Britten Studio in Suffolk, the Colombian cellist Santiago Ca帽贸n-Valencia gives a sublimely intimate performance of Bach's First Cello Suite. Also today, the eloquent violin of Geneva Lewis in one of Mozart's joyful violin sonatas and the pianist Giorgi Gigashvili in one of the more tender of Olivier Messiaen's Vingt Regards sur l'Enfant-J茅sus. And to start, Ryan Corbett reveals a wealth of colours in his transcription for accordion of a keyboard work by Felix Mendelssohn.
