He will be performing works by the composer and John Ireland with his partner, cellist Jiaxin Cheng, accompanied by pianist Rebeca Omordia.

Violinist James Ehnes performs works by Beethoven and Bartok live in the studio with pianist Andrew Armstrong ahead of their appearance at the Wigmore Hall, London.
