Summary

Edward Gardner conducts the London Philharmonic Orchestra in works by Schreker and Zemlinsky at the Royal Festival Hall, featuring Bomsori as soloist in Korngold’s Violin Concerto.

Why it's fantastic

Expect a lush, cinematic afternoon defined by the sweep of early twentieth-century Vienna. You will recognise the soaring melodies of Korngold’s concerto from the golden age of Hollywood film scores, followed by a sprawling musical fairy tale that captures every drop of the ocean’s drama through a massive orchestral sound.
