BBC Philharmonic Ten Pieces Concert plus highlights from BBC Young Musician 2024

Linton Stephens showcases the best performances from the UK and beyond, featuring BBC Philharmonic Ten Pieces Concert plus highlights from BBC Young Musician

Linton Stephens showcases the best performances by BBC orchestras, choirs, ensembles and other great performing groups from Europe and around the globe.

This week on Classical Live we are celebrating youth. There will be a live concert from the BBC Philharmonic celebrating the 10th anniversary of BBC Ten Pieces – the music education initiative that opens up the world of classical music to children and inspires them to develop their own creative responses to the music. The concert will feature works from the latest Ten Pieces list, all written by women composers, and works from previous Ten Pieces lists, including Mozart’s 4th Horn Concerto.

There will also be highlights from BBC Young Musician 2024.

Plus, there is focus on Piano Trios from across Europe with Emilie Mayer from the Varna Summer International Music Festival, Bulgaria, and the Swiss National Youth Orchestra perform Schubert and Clara Schumann in Geneva.
