Kate Molleson introduces the third of six live recitals across three days from London's Wigmore Hall, featuring current members of Radio 3's prestigious New Generation Artists scheme.

In this third concert, the charismatic young Russian cellist Anastasia Kobekina performs an all-Russian programme, including one of the great Romantic cello sonatas.

Stravinsky: Suite italienne
Rachmaninov: Sonata in G minor, Op 19

Anastasia Kobekina (cello), Luka Okros (piano)

Founded in 1999 with the aim of promoting and nurturing some of the world's finest young musicians at the start of their international careers, the scheme has since gone from strength to strength and now numbers well over 100 distinguished alumni, including Alice Coote, Paul Lewis, Alison Balsom, Alban Gerhardt, Igor Levit, and many more. Membership of the scheme is for a period of just over two years, during which time the NGAs give concerts, make studio recordings, work with the 大象传媒 orchestras, and appear at some of the UK's most prestigious festivals, including for many the 大象传媒 Proms.
