Exclusive recordings from rising classical stars

The Chaos Quartet plays music by a young Mozart, Konstantin Krimmel sings the aging Brahms's Four Serious Songs, and Tom Borrow plays Prokofiev's wartime Sixth Piano Sonata.

Georgia Mann continues her winter series showcasing Radio 3's New Generation Artists as the Chaos Quartet enjoy one of the first quartets that the 17-year-old Mozart wrote in Vienna. Also today, Tom Borrow explores the many faces of the first of Prokofiev's War Sonatas - first performed in Moscow in 1940. And the burnished baritone, Konstantin Krimmel is heard in Brahms's Autumnal Four Serious Songs in a performance recorded at the 91Èȱ¬ studios last month when he was partnered by the 91Èȱ¬ Symphony Orchestra and its chief conductor.
