Chi-chi Nwanoku introduces listeners' requests, including British music by Stanford, Boughton, Beamish and Capel Bond. With guest requester Ross Pople.

Chi-chi Nwanoku serves up more listeners' requests - today lashings of British music from Stanford, Boughton, Beamish and a delightful bassoon concertino from the little-known Coventry-based 18th-century composer Capel Bond. Colin Walsh thunders through two movements of Vierne's 2nd Organ Symphony in Lincoln Cathedral, and firebrands Martha Argerich and Gidon Kremer perform the young Mendelssohn's Concerto for Violin, Piano and string orchestra. With guest requester cellist and conductor Ross Pople.
