In today's programme a chance to hear Spanish mezzo Clara Mouriz join forces with the young Scottish guitarist Sean Shibe in songs by Falla. Currently making a splash with his interpretations of Beethoven, Russian-German pianist Igor Levit is coming to the end of his time as a New Generation Artist.
