Soprano Ruby Hughes and Errollyn Wallen live from Wigmore Hall

Exclusive music-making including soprano Ruby Hughes and pianist Errollyn Wallen live from London's Wigmore Hall and Mozart's Violin Concerto No. 3 from Sweden.

Elizabeth Alker brings you an afternoon of exclusive music-making including chamber music from soprano Ruby Hughes and pianist Errollyn Wallen live from Wigmore Hall and Mozart's Violin Concerto No. 3 performed by violinist Daniel Lozakovich, the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and conductor Kazuki Yamada as part of a week focusing on music from Sweden.

Ruby Hughes, acclaimed for her pure tone and sensitivity, is joined by composer and pianist Errollyn Wallen, who was appointed Master of the King’s Music in August 2024. Their programme includes Wallen’s exquisite Peace on Earth, a shimmering prayer-like work, evergreen folksong settings by Britten and sublime songs by Charles Ives.

And throughout the week, Classical Live is featuring specially recorded performances from the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra. Today, they are joined by violinist Daniel Lozakovich for Mozart's melodious Violin Concerto No. 3. Plus the orchestra will play Debussy's 'Images' for Orchestra, led by conductor Kazuki Yamada.

Also today, a chance to catch up with some recent studio recordings from Radio 3’s New Generation Artists and Classical Live marks the 80th Birthday of composer Edward Gregson.
