In our June issue, we enjoy an exclusive interview with Sir Mark Elder as the Hallé’s conductor turns 70 and present a free cover CD of the orchestra performing Nielsen’s Symphony No. 4, ‘The Inextinguishable’. James Naughtie meets Korean violinist Kyung Wha Chung as she prepares to perform Bach’s music for solo violin. As Cardiff Singer of the World returns to our television screens, judge Thomas Quasthoff describes the magic of the competition. Also in our June issue, we visit Britten’s Snape Maltings as the concert hall turns 50 and the Polish capital Warsaw, where Chopin’s ghost still looms large.
