NGA 20th anniversary week

Concerts from Europe, featuring alumni of the 成人快手 NGA Scheme in its 20th anniversary year. Presented by Fiona Talkington.

Fiona Talkington presents concerts from across Europe featuring alumni of the 成人快手 New Generation Artist scheme, which is celebrating its 20th anniversary year this week.

Tonight's programme features one-time members of the 成人快手 NGA scheme who have gone on to international success and now perform all over the world.

In this selection of recordings from the past twelve months, we visit the Belgian Radio 'Klarafest' in Brussels, the Montpellier Festival the Mihail Jora Concert Hall in Bucharest, the Czech Chamber Music Society concerts in the Rudolfinum in Prague, and the Konzerthaus in Berlin - all in the company of some of the outstanding musicians of our time, all of whom have come through the 成人快手's scheme to support young musicians.

In the days before '成人快手 introducing', the New Generation Scheme began offering a helping hand and concert experience to a varied collection of singers, groups and instrumentalists just starting out on their musical careers, and every two years the doors would open to a new intake of potential super stars.

The Artemis Quartet featured between 2003 and 2005, Nicolas Alstaedt in 2010-2012, the Pavel Haas Quartet (2007-2009) and Alina Ibragimova (2005-2007).
