R3 Lunchtime concert

[Il Grande Inquisitor]

I notice that today's lunchtime concert is a recording from last year's Edinburgh Festival of Magdalena Kozena's Lettere amorose recital. I saw her perform this at the Wigmore a few weeks ago, where there were microphones present; I'd assumed it was for Radio 3, but perhaps not, given this repeat. Marvellous performance, though. :magic:

I didn't hear this concert as I was out but will try to catch it again on LA. I did hear yesterday's Wigmore concert by the Florestan Trio and thought it was wonderful - both superb pieces (and not very well known, at least to me). It's why I think the Lunchtime Concert is currently the most consistently satisfying programme that R3 broadcasts: a varied repertoire of chamber music, song and piano works performed by artists both familiar and new. Long may it flourish.
