Violinist Esther Yoo with music ancient and modern

Violinist Esther Yoo opens up a colourful selection of music from the inside - revealing familiar and unfamiliar works in a new light.

Violinist Esther Yoo lines up a playlist that traverses traditional music from South Korea, harpsichord arranged for the harp, Mozart in the hands of Clara Haskil and jazz pianist Hiromi’s take on Beethoven’s Pathetique Sonata.

Esther also plays music featuring two important mentors, pianist Vladimir Ashkenazy and conductor Lorin Maazel and is launched into outer space by Esa-Pekka Salonen’s Cello Concerto...

A series in which each week a musician explores a selection of music - from the inside.
