Sophie Rennert live from Wigmore Hall and Fiona Talkington with Nordic music

Fiona Talkington showcases the best performances by 鶹 orchestras and ensembles, including mezzo Sophie Rennert live from Wigmore Hall and Sibelius’s 1st Symphony from Paris.

Fiona Talkington showcases the best performances by 鶹 orchestras, choirs and ensembles and other great performing groups from Europe and around the globe.

The programme begins live at Wigmore Hall in London where mezzo-soprano Sophie Rennert and pianist Joseph Middleton perform a selection of lieder by Schubert.

And then from 2pm, this week on Classical Live we're celebrating Nordic venues, performers and composers, including five of Sibelius’ seven symphonies and highlights of a recital by Icelandic pianist Vikingur Ólafsson.
