The BBC New Generation Artists for the 2022-24 intake have been announced and for the first time they include an accordionist - Ryan Corbett (Scotland - picture left). Ryan will “join the New Generation artists who have been on the scheme since 2021 and remain on it until December 2023”. "Launched in 1999, the New Generation Artists scheme supports young musicians at the beginning of their international careers with performance opportunities in London and around the UK. These include solo recitals, performances with the BBC orchestras, and appearances at the BBC Proms, Cheltenham Festival, Edinburgh International Festival, London’s Wigmore Hall, the Ulster Hall, and Snape Maltings among many others venues. Through broadcasts on Radio 3 these rising stars are heard by listeners all over the UK, and across Europe through the European Broadcasting Union". |
