Pianist Elisabeth Brauss plays Schubert and Beethoven at Royal Birmingham Conservatoire.

Another chance to hear Sarah Walker present a week of concerts from Royal Birmingham Conservatoire recorded in January 2020, featuring past and present members of the BBC New Generation Artists scheme to mark its 20th anniversary. Today young German pianist Elisabeth Brauss performs works by Schubert and Beethoven. Born in Hannover in 1995 Elisabeth has won numerous awards and released her debut CD to critical acclaim in 2017.

Founded in 1999 with the aim of supporting and nurturing some of the world’s most exciting young musicians at the start of their international careers, the NGA scheme now boasts well over a hundred distinguished alumni, many of whom are major players on the world stage. Membership of the scheme is for a period of just over two years, during which time artists can expect to appear at some of the UK’s most prestigious venues and festivals, perform with the BBC orchestras, make studio recordings, and commission new work.

Schubert: 4 Impromptus D899 op. 90
Beethoven: Sonate f-Moll op. 57, Appassionata

Elisabeth Brauss (piano)
