The search for the UK鈥檚 next classical superstar continues as more amazing musicians audition for a place in the quarter-finals. With the best players from Wales, Northern Ireland, Scotland and all English regions competing, the talent is phenomenal.

Presenter and saxophonist Jess Gillam, who herself reached the Young Musician final in 2016, gets to know the competitors and hears some insights from the competition鈥檚 judges: multi-award winning trumpet player Alison Balsom, pianist Alexis Ffrench, who is one of classical music鈥檚 most streamed global classical artists, and multi-instrumentalist Hannah Catherine Jones. They need to choose just 12 from all of the auditionees to take through to the quarter-finals. Will they all agree?

With the standard of playing so incredibly high, they have some tough decisions to make. At the end of the programme, the judges reveal the names of the musicians they want to hear again in the next round.
In this, the second of two programmes from this stage of the competition, we hear performances from pianists, violinists, trumpeters, bassoonists, percussionists, harpists and cellists.
