Our Choices: The BBC Music Magazine team’s current favourites

Oliver Condy, Editor

Back in February, Nicolas Namoradze, the winner of the 2018 Honens International Piano Competition, gave his Wigmore Hall prize recital - and a terrific programme it was, too. Alongside a Bach sinfonia and the Partita No. 6, the Georgian pianist pulled some York Bowen out of the hat. Each of the 20th-century English composer’s piano etudes are dazzling, inventive affairs, combining a stout Englishness with rich dashes of Debussian color.
