In our June issue, we reveal the winners of the BBC Music Magazine Awards 2023, complete with interviews with the performers themselves. Plus, as she turns 60, violinist Anne-Sophie Mutter exclusively shares her thoughts on her distinguished career, and we explore the wonders of Saint-Saëns’s five piano concertos and tell the tale of Joseph Emidy, the former slave who forged a glittering career as a violinist in early-1800s Britain. On the 400th anniversary of his death, William Byrd is our Composer of the Month, we choose the finest recordings of Rebecca Clarke’s Viola Sonata in Building a Library, and our cover CD features songs by Mahler, Debussy, Schumann and many others.
