Radio 3 New Generation Artist Aleksey Semenenko plays Beethoven, Tchaikovsky and Schubert.

Radio 3 New Generation Artist Aleksey Semenenko plays music for violin by Schubert, Beethoven and Tchaikovsky at the Radio 3 Big Chamber Weekend at Snape Maltings.

The recent Radio 3 Big Chamber Weekend at Snape Maltings brought together current members of the Radio 3 New Generation Artists scheme to celebrate the music of Schubert alongside works by other major composers. In this third concert violinist Aleksey Semenenko is joined by pianist Inna Firsova in Schubert’s Grand Duo for violin and piano, a relaxed and assured work by a 19-year-old truly finding his feet as a composer of instrumental music. Beethoven’s sonata, composed sixteen years earlier, is similarly genial, yet at the same time shot through with brilliance and wit. By contrast, Tchaikovsky’s Meditation is a melody of typically deep and Romantic soulfulness.

Introduced by Petroc Trelawny.

Beethoven: Violin Sonata in G, Op. 30 No. 3
Tchaikovsky: Méditation from Souvenir d'un lieu cher, Op. 42
Schubert: Grand Duo in A, D574
