BBC Young Musician: Grand Final (S2022EP6 BBC Four Sunday 9 September 2022)
Grand Fina: As the grand final of BBC Young Musician 2022 takes place at Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall, the competition comes to a close.
The most outstanding young classical talent in the UK has been showcased on BBC Young Musician for more than 40 years. The competition is primarily a celebration of the enthusiasm, commitment, ambition, and potential of young performers from all four countries. The long list of previous winners and finalists includes many of the most prominent musicians of our time, including Sheku Kanneh-Mason, Nicola Benedetti, Alison Balsom, Natalie Clein, Stephen Hough, and Thomas Adès. But beyond that, it has the power to change lives and has launched some of the most significant musical careers of the past four decades.
In the string, woodwind, brass, percussion, and keyboard category finals, five exceptional adolescent performers took first place. Each of the five winners will present a complete concerto tonight at Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall under the direction of Mark Wigglesworth and the BBC Philharmonic.
A distinguished panel of judges, including musician and composer Anoushka Shankar, conductor Ben Gernon, BBC Radio 3 editor Emma Bloxham, and Toks Dada, head of classical music at London’s Southbank Centre, will select the overall winner of the title BBC Young Musician 2022. They join Anna Lapwood, who served as the category finals’ judging panel chair and is the organist and director of music at Pembroke College in Cambridge.
Presented by Josie d’Arby, Alexis Ffrench and Jess Gillam.
