Fiona Talkington's extraordinary sounds

Fiona Talkington leads you on another reliably unpredictable late-night sonic journey. Featured artists include Pavel Kolesnikov, Tom Robinson, and The Ex.

Another reliably unpredictable late-night sonic journey. Fiona Talkington leads you through avenues of innovative, experimental, and cutting-edge music.

Featured artists include pianist Pavel Kolesnikov, singer-songwriter Tom Robinson, and long-time Late Junction favourites The Ex, who have gifted us with an exclusive rarity from their catalogue.

Tonight you can also relive one of the finest Late Junction collaboration sessions of 2019 so far, which saw an alternative string quartet assembled one day in March at the BBC’s Maida Vale Studios. The awesome foursome comprised virtuoso scholar of Chinese traditional music Cheng Yu, instrument inventor Sam Underwood, master fiddler Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh, and bandleader and pianist Elliot Galvin.

Produced by Jack Howson.
A Reduced Listening Production for BBC Radio 3.
