Chi-chi Nwanoku presents a selection of Radio 3 listeners' requests, including music from Sibelius' Lemminkainen Legends, Vaughan Williams' Preludes on Welsh hymn tunes, Brahms' Trio for piano, violin and horn, and a taste of harpist Catrin Finch's arrangement of Bach's Goldberg Variations. And Catrin chooses a favourite of her own - Shostakovich's Piano concerto No 2.
