Union Overture and Celebration
To mark the 40th anniversary of the government’s Music and Dance Scheme (MDS), young musicians from the UK’s five specialist music schools release the results of an unprecedented collaboration, written and performed during lockdown.
Inside Music
Gwilym demonstrates that music has no boundaries as he explores sounds ranging from suspended choral harmonies by Eric Whitacre and celestial spirals on the harp, to a rarely heard piano quartet by William Walton and three intriguing minutes from Argentinian composer Astor Piazzolla. Plus two very different sides of JS Bach and an irresistible Russian waltz.
