The LSO and Valery Gergiev conducts the LSO in Debussy's L'apres midi, two symphonies by Stravinsky and the premiere of James Macmillan's Violin Concerto.
Vadim Repin joins the LSO in the premiere of James MacMillan's latest work, a new Violin Concerto, as part of the orchestra's season-long celebration of the composer's 50th birthday. Three masterpieces frame the new work: Debussy's enticing Pr脙漏lude 脙隆 l'apr脙篓s-midi d'un Faune, of which his biographer claimed, when it was written in 1894, 'nothing like it existed in music,' and two of Stravinsky's greatest neo-classical works.
