Tom Redmond presents Royal Birmingham Conservatoire's Royal Opening Gala Concert with the Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, conductor Mirga Gra啪inyt茅-Tyla and Andrey Ivanov (piano), marking the official opening of the new building on Birmingham's East side. Opening with the world premiere of Elsewhere by the Conservatoire's Head of Composition Joe Cutler, there's another premiere from Lithuanian polymath M.K. Ciurlionis, 117 years after its composition. In between, pianist and student Andrey Ivanov performs Chopin's youthful Second Piano Concerto. And to end, that paean to yearning, Ravel's second suite from Daphnis and Chloe - a work described by Stravinsky as 'one of the most beautiful products in all of French music'.
