Summary
Gustavo Gimeno conducts the London Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican, featuring Yuja Wang in Prokofiev’s Third Piano Concerto alongside works by Mussorgsky and Tchaikovsky.
Why it's fantastic
You might recognize the frantic, supernatural energy of the opening work from Disney’s Fantasia, a piece that perfectly sets the stage for high-octane drama. With superstar pianist Yuja Wang tackling Prokofiev’s most athletic concerto, this evening offers a vivid journey through some of the most enduring melodies in Russian history.
