Summary
Thomas Adès conducts the London Symphony Orchestra at the Barbican, joining pianist Bertrand Chamayou for his own work alongside pieces by Per Nørgård and Sibelius.
Why it's fantastic
Experience the sheer exhilaration of Sibelius’s fifth symphony, famously inspired by the sight of sixteen swans taking flight together. With a contemporary master conducting his own rhythmic piano concerto alongside this Nordic classic, it is an ideal evening for anyone wanting to hear how nature translates into powerful, modern soundscapes.
