Pianist Elisabeth Brauss plays Mozart

Chamber music from Radio 3's New Generation Artists: Helen Charlston sings Schubert, and Elisabeth Brauss plays Mozart's charming set of variations on a French nursery song.

Helen Charlston sings Schubert and Elisabeth Brauss plays Mozart.

The young British mezzo sings one of Schubert's tenderest songs, with a text about Lake Erlaf by one of his favourite poets. And after that, recent New Generation Artist, Elisabeth Brauss captures to perfection the dizzying charm of Mozart's variations on a French children's song in a performance she gave in Aldeburgh.
