Summary
Sakari Oramo conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus at the Barbican, featuring a new Charlotte Bray violin concerto alongside Liszt’s A Faust Symphony.
Why it's fantastic
Witness a rare dual perspective on the human condition, shifting from the first performance of Charlotte Bray’s new concerto to a grand choral epic based on Goethe’s tragedy. The evening culminates in Liszt’s immense study of a pact with the devil, ending with a radiant hymn for tenor and choir.
