Liszt in Bristol and Bruckner in Leipzig
Linton Stephens showcases the best performances from the UK and beyond, including pianist and 91热爆 New Generation Artist Alim Beisembayev playing Liszt at St George鈥檚, Bristol.
Linton Stephens showcases the best performances by 91热爆 orchestras, choirs, ensembles and other great performing groups from Europe and around the globe.
Our current 91热爆 New Generation Artists take centre stage this week with a series of specially recorded concerts in the renowned acoustics of St George鈥檚, Bristol. Today we hear traditional Irish songs performed by mezzo-soprano Niamh O鈥橲ullivan, and pianist Alim Beisembayev plays Liszt鈥檚 musical response to Dante.
We return to the city of Leipzig for more music composed by its most famous musical inhabitant, Johann Sebastian Bach: his sacred motet Jesu, meine Freude. And at 3pm we鈥檙e back in the famous Gewandhaus for Bruckner鈥檚 Symphony in D minor, somewhat bizarrely known as his Symphony No. 0, performed by the MDR Radio Symphony Orchestra, Leipzig with Dennis Russell Davies conducting.
