Ning Feng and Thomas Hoppe

Dazzling Chinese violinist Ning Feng plays Schnittke, Prokofiev, Falla and Korngold.

A programme of 20th-century delights: from Schnittke, looking back to the Baroque; to the popular Spanish dances of Falla; to three movements from Prokofiev's greatest ballet; and finally, a suite from Korngold's incidental music to one of Shakespeare's most celebrated plays.
