Viola player Ruth Gibson with a focus on performer personalities

Ruth Gibson opens up a selection of music from her point of view as a viola player - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.

Viola player Ruth Gibson shares a range of music showcasing contrasting sound worlds that share surprising connections, by composers including Roslavets, Corelli and Ravel.

Ruth explores several performers whose personalities shine through in their playing, admires fellow viola player Lawrence Power鈥檚 declamatory style, and marvels at how Mahan Esfahani performs Bach with so much freedom.

Plus, raucous birdsong brought to life by a collection of wind instruments.

A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
