23/11/2011 Ian Shaw, Denis Kozhukhin, Vocal Futures

With Sean Rafferty. Jazz singer Ian Shaw and the young Russian pianist Denis Kozhukhin perform in the studio. Plus news on Vocal Futures's ambitious St Matthew Passion production.

Presented by Sean Rafferty

Jazz singer Ian Shaw, twice winner of the 大象传媒 Jazz Awards' Best Jazz Vocalist category, performs live in the studio with trumpeter Miguel Gorodi ahead of a two night residency at the legendary Ronnie Scotts.

Vocal Futures is a new venture aiming to open up classical music to young audiences. Its founder Suzi Digby and opera director Patrick Kinmonth talk to Sean about their upcoming production of Bach's St Matthew Passion, staged in a disused lab in Westminster and featuring and all-star cast and the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment.

Young Russian pianist Denis Kozhukhin came to prominence in 2010 when he won the Queen Elisabeth Competition in Brussels. He is now much in demand on the concert platform and has embarked on an ambitious cycle of the Prokofiev Piano Concertos with the 大象传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra. He talks to Sean and performs live ahead of the latest installment of that cycle.

Plus My Essential Symphony featuring mathematician Marcus Du Sautoy.
