成人快手

Clemency Burton-Hill continues a two week series showcasing the 成人快手 Radio 3 New Generation Artists.

As part of the 成人快手's commitment to developing and nurturing young talent, 成人快手 Radio 3 launched its New Generation Artists scheme in the autumn of 1999. Now well into its second decade, the scheme has acquired the reputation of being a world leader for young artists. Every autumn six to seven artists or groups who are beginning to make a mark on the international music scene are invited to join. Opportunities include concerts in London and around the UK, appearances and recordings with the 成人快手 Orchestras, special studio recordings for Radio 3, and, for some, appearances at the Proms.
Olena Tokar studied at the Ukrainian Tchaikovsky National Academy of Musicin Kiev - Rachmaninov was one its founder in 1913. Today, Olena Tokar sings Rachmaninov with Igor Gryshyn. Fr茅d茅ric Chopin's Sonata no. 3 in B minor, op. 58 was written during the summer of 1844 and it combines both the classical and romantic traditions and allows Radio 3 New Generation Artist, Pavel Kolesnikov to show both poise and virtuosic flair. To end today's programme the Danish Quartet play the String Quartet No. 4 by fellow Dane, Carl Nielsen. Nielsen composed this quartet in 1906 under the title Piacevolezza - which simply means something pleasing. He revised it in 1919 and published it 1923 as Op. 44.
