From Wigmore Hall, London. Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective present an all-French programme.

Wigmore Hall's Associate Artists, begin their programme with a short work by the little-known M茅lanie Bonis, a contemporary of Debussy at the Paris Conservatoire, who adopted the more androgynous form of her first name, "Mel." They end with Faur茅's Second Piano Quartet, a work much admired by Aaron Copland, who described the adagio as "a long sigh of infinite tenderness, a long moment of quiet melancholy and nostalgic charm."

Presented by Martin Handley.
