Joining forces to honour the 150th anniversary
of Debussy’s birth we have three leading young
soloists: two are current BBC Radio 3 New
Generation Artists, and Jennifer Pike, BBC
Young Musician of the Year in 2002, is a former
member too. The Debussy pieces come from
late in his career, when he embarked on a set
of six sonatas for various instrumental
combinations. He completed just three – of
which the Sonata for flute, viola and harp can
be heard later in the season (Proms Chamber
Music 7). Ravel’s elegant Piano Trio gained a
new following after featuring in the heartrending
1992 film Un
coeur en hiver.
