Summary

Sakari Oramo leads the BBC Symphony Orchestra and soloist Inmo Yang in a programme of Enescu, Bartók and Brahms at the Barbican.

Why it's fantastic

The evening opens with the irrepressible energy of Romanian folk dance before moving into Brahms’s monumental first symphony, a work that took two decades to perfect. It is a rare chance to hear Inmo Yang tackle Bartók’s youthful concerto, offering a programme that balances fiery village fiddling with rich orchestral tradition.
