2026 Proms season showcase - Lukas Sternath
Viennese pianist, Lukas Sternath plays a movement from one of Schubert's late piano sonatas and Elizaveta Ivanova explores Ervin Schulhoff's eclectic Flute Sonata of 1927.
Georgia Mann introduces specially-recorded performances from some of Radio 3's current New Generation Artists. Today, the young Viennese pianist plays a movement from one of Schubert's late, great piano sonatas. And that's followed by Elizaveta Ivanova's performance of the Flute Sonata by Ervin Schulhoff. Written in 1927, it mixes 'exotic' influences with jazz and Slovak folk-dance.
