Pierre Boulez, conductor
No-one had a more profound and wide-ranging impact on musical life over the past six decades than Pierre Boulez - as composer, conductor, polemicist and prophet. This concert features music by two of the composers he most cherished, along with a work of his own which engages with the imagery and symbolism of nature - a world that so absorbed Debussy, Ravel and others among Boulez's predecessors.
