BBC Radio 3 - In Tune, Mnozil, Lawrence Zazzo, Jennifer Stumm

With live music from Mnozil and Jennifer Stumm. Plus Ten Facts: Ten Pieces.

Presented by Suzy Klein. With countertenor Lawrence Zazzo, Austrian septet Mnozil and viola player Jennifer Stumm. Plus Ten Facts: Ten Pieces: Stravinsky's The Firebird.

Suzy Klein speaks to the American countertenor Lawrence Zazzo about his new CD, A Royal Trio, which cherry-picks the finest offerings commissioned by the first opera company in the English-speaking world, the Royal Academy of Music. Circa 1725, these included Handel's Giulio Cesare, and other finery from Ariosti and Bononcini.

Performing live in the studio this afternoon is the Austrian septet Mnozil, who bring their unique and humorous brand of brass playing to the UK for a tour throughout October.

Also performing live is viola player Jennifer Stumm, playing selections from her latest disc - a recording of Berlioz's 'Harold in Italy'. Today she is joined by Ana-Maria Vera on the piano.

And Suzy presents the final instalment of Ten Facts: Ten Pieces, linked to the BBC's ten-pieces project that aims to inspire a generation of children to get creative with classical music. Each day she offers a downloadable feature with ten quirky, entertaining and illuminating facts; today's work is Stravinsky's early orchestral masterpiece The Firebird.

Also today, more music by Brahms, towering genius of German Romantic music, as part of Radio 3's Brahms Experience.

Main news headlines are at 5pm and 6pm.
