Part of BBC Radio 3's Antoine Tamestit & Friends series. The charismatic viola soloist Antoine Tamestit very clearly relishes the opportunity to collaborate with other musicians, whether he's working with a composer on a new piece or playing in chamber groups. In tandem with his Artist Portrait series with the LSO at the Barbican, Tamestit highlights this gift for forming enduring partnerships in this set of BBC Radio 3 Lunchtime Concerts, featuring a cast of his closest musical friends. He begins, joined by the Arod String Quartet, with Brahms' String Quintet In G, a broad, lyrical piece that conjures orchestral sounds from its five musicians.
