成人快手

Sarah Walker presents Ravel Plus, with music performed by the current 成人快手 Radio 3 New Generation Artist violinist Aleksey Semenenko with the pianist Inna Firsova, recorded at St Mary's Church, Hay-on-Wye, during the 2019 Hay Festival. The concert comprises a selection of music including Ravel鈥檚 mature and final chamber work, the three movement Jazz infused second violin sonata. Also in the concert alongside music by Chaminade, Szymanowski and Saint-Sa毛ns, is Ravel鈥檚 virtuosic Tzigane which took inspiration from Hungarian Gypsy folk music, and makes huge technical demands particularly on the violinist.

The 2019 Hay Festival lunchtime concert series also celebrates the 20th anniversary of Radio 3鈥檚 New Generation Artists scheme, which nurtures and promotes some of the world鈥檚 finest young musicians at the start of their international careers. Throughout the week there鈥檒l be performances by both current and former 成人快手 New Generation Artists.
