Linton Stephens showcases the best performances by Â鶹Éç orchestras, choirs, ensembles and other great performing groups from Europe and around the globe.
As part of Radio 3’s European Roadtrip this week, today we focus on Budapest, with recordings made there by the Hungarian Radio Symphony Orchestra. In our 3pm centrepiece, the orchestra is joined by violinist Renaud Capuçon for Robert Schumann’s Violin Concerto; before that they perform a Sinfonia by the Baroque composer Christoph Graupner. And for the last time this week, there’s music recorded at this year’s Edinburgh International Music Festival, with more Ravel from pianist Seong-Jin Cho and the Kleio Quartet playing Haydn.
