BBC Young Musician S2022E05 - Keyboard Final Highlights

In the last of the category finals, we find out who will take the last place in this year's BBC Young Musician grand final. In a hotly contested competition, five talented musicians perform music by titans of the keyboard repertoire – Beethoven, Liszt, Chopin, Scriabin and Scarlatti. They are Jacky Zhang (14), Ethan Loch (17), Firoze Madon (18), Duru Erdogan (18) and Dida Condria (19).

Saxophonist and broadcaster Jess Gillam and pianist and composer Alexis Ffrench present the highlights from Saffron Hall in Essex.

Joining them are our judging panel: Tom Poster, who won the BBC Young Musician Keyboard Final in 2000, Daniel Tong, who is head of piano in chamber music at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire, and chair of the jury, organist and conductor Anna Lapwood.

At the end of the programme, the line-up for this year's BBC Young Musician grand final will be complete. The five category winners will each perform a concerto with the BBC Philharmonic, conducted by Mark Wigglesworth. BBC Four provides full coverage of the final from Bridgewater Hall on the evening of Sunday 9 October.
