Chamber music from Radio 3's New Generation Artists: Catriona Morison sings Elgar's Sea Pictures and Alec Franck-Gemmill plays Schumann on a Viennese natural horn.

New Generation Artists: Catriona Morison sings Elgar's Sea Pictures.
The Scots-born mezzo heard in a recording made in 2018 at the 大象传媒 studios of Elgar's evocative song cycle. Also today, the characterful sound of an historic horn and piano caught in a performance given at the late Richard Burnett's Finchcocks Musical Museum in Kent in 2015 - just a few days before it closed its doors for the last time.

Catriona Morison (mezzo-soprano), Malcolm Martineau (piano)
