Live from Wigmore Hall: cellist Laura van der Heijden and pianist Tom Poster in music spanning three centuries.

The British cellist - a former 成人快手 Young Musician of the Year - has chosen a typically imaginative programme, ranging from a sonata from one of Louis XIV's favourite composers to a short work by Errollyn Wallen. And, to finish, a sonata written in 1957 by George Walker, born a hundred years ago this year.
