Georgia Mann celebrates the twentieth anniversary of 大象传媒 Radio 3鈥檚 New Generation Artists scheme with a selection of performances by current members, from the Pittville Pump Room at the 2019 Cheltenham Music Festival. Aleksey Semenenko, Anastasia Kobekina and Elisabeth Brauss join forces to play Mendelssohn鈥檚 second Piano Trio, which was in part inspired by the music of Bach, and dedicated to the violinist and composer Louis Spohr. This is followed by one of Bartok鈥檚 most successful string quartets, the fourth, reflecting the composer鈥檚 fascination with mirror images and symmetry, and performed by Quatuor Arod.
