Cello music by Britten and Bridge live from Wigmore Hall

Music by Britten and Bridge performed live by one of Radio 3's New Generation Artists, and also this week, exclusive concert recordings of distinctive settings of the church mass.

Music for cello and piano by Britten and Bridge performed live at Wigmore Hall by one of Radio 3's New Generation Artists, Stirling Elliott. The scheme champions and supports a chosen number of formidable young artists of international pedigree with the view of offering a window on classical music's rising stars.
Also in this week's programmes, Al Ryan presents a selection of exclusive concert recordings of distinctive and contasting settings of the church mass. Today Mozart's Coronation Mass performed late last year in Wroclaw.
And from Northern Ireland, we feature highlights from the recent Belfast International Chamber Music Festival including performances from the Sitkovetsky Trio and from trombonist Peter Moore, both playing music by Brahms.
