Radio 3's New Generation Artists: Swedish Johanna Wallroth sings music from her homeland and Geneva Lewis plays Beethoven's lyrical Violin Sonata no. 6.

Georgia Mann presents the final programme in her Winter series showcasing Radio 3's current New Generation Artists.
Geneva Lewis plays one of the three violin sonata written by the thirty-something Beethoven just before he plunged into the epoch-making 'Eroica' Symphony. Also today, the soprano Johanna Wallroth makes her debut at the tv studios with a selection of songs, including music by her Swedish compatriot, Wilhelm Stenhammar. And to end, Giorgi Gigashvili plays and sings Yellow Leaves from the Georgian hit-movie Minimo and the award-winning jazz pianist Fergus McCreadie pairs up with Santiago Cañón-Valencia for a classic from his native Colombia.
