Petroc Trelawny presents Radio 3's award-winning classical breakfast show with music that captures the mood of the morning, today celebrating 25 years of the 大象传媒 New Generation Artists scheme.

Founded in 1999, the 大象传媒 New Generation Artists scheme supports some of the world鈥檚 most exciting young instrumentalists, ensembles and singers at the start of their international careers, through performance and broadcast opportunities on Radio 3. Now numbering well over 150, the list of alumni features many of the biggest names in classical music and jazz, including Paul Lewis (piano), Alina Ibragimova (violin), the Ebene and Pavel Haas Quartets, Misha Mullov-Abbado (jazz bass), Alison Balsom (trumpet), Masabane Cecilia Rangwanasha (soprano), Mahan Esfahani (harpsichord), Anastasia Kobekina (cello) and many more.

In this special day of programming Radio 3 celebrates 25 years of superlative music-making with live and specially recorded performances from NGAs former and current, including accordionist Ryan Corbett.

We also have the next of Radio 3鈥檚 25 for 25: Sounds of the Century 鈥� a series of brand new commissions celebrating and commemorating some of the biggest events of the 21st century so far.

This week, in Trial and Error Finnish composer Sauli Zinovjev reflects on the trial of Saddam Hussein which was widely shared on the newly launched You Tube in 2005. The piece for New Generation Artist cellist Santiago Canon-Valencia uses the trial as a metaphor for a broader human experience: the constant cycle of trying, failing, and trying again. Co-commissioned with the Henry Barber Trust.
