Boccherini, Ysaye and Prokofiev from the 2019 Cheltenham Music Festival

Georgia Mann presents ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ New Generation Artists performing music by Boccherini, Ysaye and Prokofiev at the 2019 Cheltenham Music Festival.

Georgia Mann celebrates the twentieth anniversary of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 3’s New Generation Artists scheme with a selection of performances by current members, from the Pittville Pump Room at the 2019 Cheltenham Music Festival. To begin, Boccherini’s much loved fourth quintet which includes a fandango, played by Thibaut Garcia and Quatuor Arod. Aleksey Semenenko follows with a performance of a highly challenging solo violin sonata by Eugene Ysaye. To end, Prokofiev’s cello sonata played by Anastasia Kobekina and Lilit Grigoryan. A work which had to be heard by two separate soviet committees, before it was deemed acceptable for public performance in 1950.
