Manfred Honeck, Gerald Finley, Stephen Higgins, MIchael Mayes

Top-class live music from some of the world's finest classical, jazz, folk and world musicians. If it's happening in the world of music, you'll hear it first on In Tune.

Sean Rafferty is joined by Gerald Finley, Stephen Higgins, and MIchael Mayes, who perform in the studio ahead of a new production of Bartok's Bluebeard's Castle which retells the opera through the lens of a family living with dementia. We hear, too, from the conductor Manfred Honeck ahead of the release of a new album with the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra of music by Brahms and MacMillan. Plus there's the latest news from the classical music world.
