Chamber music from Radio 3's New Generation Artists: Timothy Ridout is joined by Artur Pizzaro in the sonata for viola and piano by the Russian-born Swiss composer Paul Juon. Often referred to as the 'Russian Brahms', Juon's sonata is full of sweeping lyrical musical lines. The sonata is sandwiched between two works by Tchaikovsky: starting with January from the Seasons, in the version for piano solo, played by Elisabeth Brauss, then ending with one is his songs, None but the Lonely Heart, sung by mezzo-soprano Helen Charlston with Kunal Lahiry.
