成人快手

On Sunday, the 成人快手 National Orchestra of Wales plays host to the grand final of the 成人快手 Young Musician competition at the Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff. That concert is being broadcast both on Radio 3 and 成人快手 4 TV, and throughout this week's Afternoons Jonathan Swain presents performances from the final rounds (the percussion final forms part of Performance on 3 on Friday evening). There's also a strong focus on youth in the other music this week, featuring competition finalists from previous years, and on Wednesday we go live to the orchestra's home in 成人快手 Hoddinott Hall, Cardiff.
