Scottish multi-instrumentalist and composer Anna Meredith will perform new piece "Four Tributes to 4am" at BBC Radio 3's Unclassified Live show.

BBC Radio 3 Unclassified Live will be a series of live shows taking place at London's Southbank Centre in collaboration with BBC Concert Orchestra and Southbank Sinfonia.

The live shows are co-curated by Elizabeth Alker and André de Ridder, and will see performances from Anna Meredith, Daniel Avery, Tim Hecker, Daniel Elms, and more.

Anna Meredith will be performing new piece "Four Tributes to 4am" alongside visuals by Ewan Jones Morris on 29 September.

BBc Radio 3's controller Alan Davey says of the shows, "On Radio 3 we bring you new, live performances and adventures in contemporary sound every day, and we celebrate the role of new work and boundary-pushing musicians young and established in everything we do. With Unclassified and Unclassified Live, Elizabeth Alker perfectly captures the inquisitive spirit of Radio 3, by really getting beneath the skin of the music, and helping you discover musical insights that will change your perspective on the world in a way that is both exploratory and innovative."

Host Elizabeth Alker adds, "Being able to programme this series of live shows with Andre and see Unclassified come to life in front of an audience, with an orchestra, at the Southbank is a dream come true. It's such a brilliant opportunity to showcase this music in this unique and special way."

Anna Meredith will play the first Unclassified Live show on 29 September. Tickets are on sale now.
