    Caught this on BBC Four. Highly recommended if you want life enhancing variety of music played with obvious enjoyment by young, talented musicians at the start of their careers.

      Listened to this when it was broadcast and have just caught the last 15 mins or so of the BBC4 repeat. It won't be to everyone's taste and for me I wouldn't have wanted the concert to be any longer, but it was very well done. I did enjoy being able to watch the performers - the double basses were a delight! Had to do a double take though as Sheku has gone minimal on the hairstyle front and looks very different.
