Radio 3 New Generation Artists Eivind Ringstad, Aleksey Semenenko and Mengjie Han play Schubert, Britten and Mozart at the recent Radio 3 Big Chamber Weekend at Snape Maltings.

The recent Radio 3 Big Chamber Weekend at Snape Maltings brought together current members of the Radio 3 New Generation Artists scheme to celebrate the music of Schubert alongside works by other major composers. In this first concert, Eivind Ringstad plays the 16-year-old Britten's precociously eloquent Elegy for solo viola, and teams up with pianist Mengjie Han (of the Amatis Piano Trio) in Schubert's irresistibly lyrical 'Arpeggione' Sonata, a work which was composed for a now-obsolete instrument but has since become one of the jewels of the viola repertoire. In between, violinist Aleksey Semenenko joins Eivind in one of the two delicious duos Mozart wrote for violin and viola.

Introduced by Petroc Trelawny.

Britten: Elegy
Mozart: Duo in B flat for violin and viola in E flat, K424
Schubert: Arpeggione Sonata in A minor, D821

Eivind Ringstad (viola)
