Following closely the arrival of the new year is the Park Lane Group's annual series of concerts featuring young artists playing contemporary music, traditionally staged in the Purcell Room on London's South
Bank during the first week of January. Previous programmes reveal a veritable who's who of musical life - and this year's line-up ranges from solo piano via percussion and harp to wind quintet. Verity Sharp presents highlights from the ten concerts. Including performances by Pedro Carneiro (percussion), the Marais Ensemble, Chamber Domaine and the Quartz Saxophone Quartet
