Fiona Talkington presents the third in a series four concerts, curated by Radio 3 in partnership with Cedars Hall at Wells Cathedral School, together with the Atos Trio. In today's lunchtime concert the group's musical journey around four European cities reaches St Petersburg, a jewel in Russia's architectural and musical crowns. Two members of the Atos Trio and clarinettist Mark Simpson, all former members of Radio 3's New Generation Artists scheme, join forces in an arrangement of a Faustian tale by Stravinsky and the recital concludes with Shostakovich's deeply felt second Piano Trio, written in the aftermath of the siege of Leningrad and the loss of a dear friend.
