Looking forward to today's upcoming recital from Wigmore with Helen Charlston and Sholto Kynoch based sround settings of Heinrich Heine’s Lyrisches Intermezzo.

The Oxford Lieder performance had a rave review in yesterday's Observer.

I hope you enjoyed at as much as I did - I was there in the hall, and was completely bowled over by their wonderfully intense performance of Dichterliebe. As well as being on BBC sounds, the concert is available on the Wigmore's video stream https://www.wigmore-hall.org.uk/whats-on/202310231300 , and I'd urge anyone to watch it if possible: she's a superbly communicative performer.

Had been looking forward to the VW on today's offering but have been disappointed. I don't know if Roderick Williams has now adopted the heavier vibrato approach(I do hope not) but it was all rather mushy, and although I know the work reasonably well I found it hard to recognise some of what I was hearing.

I must have listened 6 or 7 times to Elisabeth Brauss’s performance of Carnaval in this concert broadcast last Thursday:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001svys
I’d previously been impressed by her playing but this has just got me hooked, marvellous interpretation I think.
Would be interested in others’ views"...the isle is full of noises,
Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."

On a piano note the Paul Lewis Brahms 1 with the Prague Symphony last night was excellent but had a truly terrible sound balance. You need to hear something that poor to realise what a good job R3 do.

So is today's schedule change announcement the end of Lunchtime Concerts? From April Essential Classics will run straight into "Classical Live", the rebranded, extended and soon to be permanently Salford based awful afternoon mish mash. Presumably there'll be a few contractual agreements to fulfil (eg Wigmore Hall) but it's not clear if once those are complete the BBC will still bother to go out and record chamber music without a presenter to then throw into the pot for use as chunks by Classical Live. It seems odd to remove everything that's distinctive about Radio 3, which would seem to make it very easy to abolish. Perhaps that's the plan.
