Woodwind Category Final
With two places in the semi-final already decided, it's the turn of the woodwind players to take centre stage. Josie d'Arby is joined by bassoonist Amy Harman at the Royal Birmingham Conservatoire to bring highlights from the BBC Young Musician 2018 woodwind final. Five outstanding musicians have been selected, playing an array of instruments - saxophonist Robert Burton, flautist Marie Sato; bassoonist Francis Bushell, recorder player Eliza Haskins and clarinettist Tom Myles. They perform music from the Baroque period to the 21st century by composers such as Corelli, Faure and Gershwin. They perform in front of an expert panel of judges: clarinettist Emma Johnson, flautist Juliette Bausor and composer, performer and writer, Kerry Andrew. They will decide who will win the woodwind final and proceed through to the semi-final. The programme includes profiles of the competitors, extensive highlights of their performances together with the behind-the-scenes story of the competition.

The Gilded Age
The American Gilded Age was a period of immense economic change, of huge fortunes made and lost, and the rise of disparity between old money and new.
Against this backdrop of change, the story begins in 1882 — introducing young Marian Brook, the orphaned daughter of a Union general, who moves into the New York City home of her thoroughly old money aunts Agnes van Rhijn and Ada Brook. Accompanied by Peggy Scott, an accomplished African-American woman, Marian inadvertently becomes enmeshed in a social war between one of her aunts, a scion of the old money set, and her stupendously rich neighbors, a ruthless railroad tycoon and his ambitious wife, George and Bertha Russell.
In this exciting new world that is on the brink of the modern age, will Marian follow the established rules of society, or forge her own path?
