The finals of the 19th Leeds International Piano Competition continue as Sarah Walker introduces the last three concerto performances from Leeds Town Hall.

The nail-biting finals of the 19th Leeds International Piano Competition continue as Sarah Walker introduces three more concerto performances from Leeds Town Hall. Sir Mark Elder conducts the Hall茅.

A short-list of 79 of the world's most talented young pianists has been whittled down, through three preliminary stages of this prestigious triennial competition to just six. These young pianists join past laureates including Murray Perahia, Radu Lupu, Sir Andras Schiff, Mitsuko Uchida, Lars Vogt, Louis Lortie and Artur Pizarro, as they make their bid to win over the twelve-strong jury, chaired by the competition's founder Dame Fanny Waterman, in a performance of a complete concerto. Sir Mark Elder conducts the Hall茅.
