Great summer music-making from Edinburgh and London

Linton Stephens introduces exclusive recordings from international summer music festivals including the Chiaroscuro Quartet from Edinburgh and Ensemble Resonanz performing Mozart.

Linton Stephens with great music-making in exclusive recordings from the greatest international summer music festivals. Diverse and inventive programming from the Edinburgh International Festival and Mozart from Ensemble Resonanz at the ³ÉÈËÂÛ̳ Proms.

From the Queen’s Hall in Edinburgh music from Joseph Haydn performed by the Chiaroscuro Quartet; cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason teams up with pianist Harry Baker for a highly distinctive, inventive and characteristic programme of music-making featuring items by Pat Metheny and Laura Mvula. In contrast, fortepianist Maxim Emelyanychev performs Mozart alongside principal players from the Scottish Chamber Orchestra. And the celebration of the genius of Mozart continues at the Royal Albert Hall in London with a visit by Ensemble Resonanz - resident group at Hamburg’s Elbphilharmonie - under their director Riccardo Minasi in a programme that culminates in a performance of Mozart’s masterly final symphony.
