Classical Collection with Sarah Walker: this week music with Polish connections, concert overtures and recordings by the violinist Nigel Kennedy.

A particularly Polish day. Our Wednesday Award-winner is a recording of Mozart's Piano Sonata in D, K311, recipient of a Polish Fryderyk award in 2009. There's Mlynarski's Violin Concerto No.2 in D played by Polish resident Nigel Kennedy and the Polish Chamber Orchestra. Plus, we have Brahms's Tragic Overture, Op.81 courtesy of the Staatskapelle Dresden.
