Featuring Kitty Whateley (mezzo), Christian Ihle Handland (piano), Ruby Hughes (soprano).

Clemency Burton-Hill introduces the third of four programmes showcasing the talents of Radio 3's starry line-up of New Generation Artists. Now in its 15th year, the New Generation Artists scheme brings listeners the very best of emerging British and international talent. The NGAs are offered many opportunities to perform in chamber concerts and with the BBC orchestras; every day this week we hear the fruits of their work in the studio, in recordings made specially for Radio 3.

Today we hear the Norwegian pianist Christian Ihle Hadland in solo repertoire and with NGA soprano Ruby Hughes in a selection of Schubert songs. And there's a chance to hear from NGA newcomer Kitty Whately in arias by Handel and Bach.
