First broadcast in 2021, Sarah Walker introduces the second concert in a series devised by the Consone Quartet during their membership of Radio 3's New Generation Artists Scheme. In today's recital, which was recorded in the Dora Stoutzker recital hall at the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama in Cardiff in October 2020, they perform specially commissioned arrangements of five Schubert songs with the tenor Gwilym Bowen. Before that Gwilym teams up with the fortepianist Paolo Zanzu, who plays an 1839 Johann Streicher instrument, for a sequence of songs by Clara and Robert Schumann exploring themes of love. The Consones begin though with some of Schubert's dances, which are guaranteed to get your foot-tapping.
