Fishguard and Machynlleth Festivals 2017: Rachel Podger, Anna Tsybuleva
From Welsh music festivals in Fishguard and Machynlleth, Rachel Podger and Marcin Swiatkiewicz perform music by Leonarda and pianist Anna Tsybuleva plays Tchaikovsky's The Seasons.
This week's concerts are from festivals held in North Pembrokeshire and the picturesque mid-Wales market-town of Machynlleth. Every August since 1986, the Tabernacle in Machynlleth has been home to an international music festival. Today Rachel Podger joins Marcin 艢wi膮tkiewicz to perform music by Isabella Leonarda, who spent most of her life composing from a convent. The Sonata No 12 reflects Loenarda's mostly liturgical output. The Fishguard International Music Festival was established in 1969, and takes place in a series of locations in the area. Recorded in the Oak Hall at Rhosygilwen Mansion in the rural landscape on the borders of Ceredigion and Carmarthen, the Russian pianist Anna Tsybuleva performs Tchaikovsky's The Seasons inspired by his native Russia.
Presented by Christopher Cook.
