Simon Rattle and the LSO

Sir Simon Rattle and the London Symphony Orchestra return to the Proms with an evening celebrating one of the trailblazers of 20th-century music, Igor Stravinsky.

Sir Simon Rattle and the London Symphony Orchestra return to the Proms with an evening celebrating one of the trailblazers of 20th-century music, Igor Stravinsky. Marking the fiftieth anniversary of his death, the programme showcases the ever mercurial and controversial nature of Stravinsky’s orchestral music, spanning his move to Paris in 1921, his emigration to Hollywood at the onset of World War II and the end of the war in 1945. Presented by Clive Myrie with guest, Stravinsky scholar Jonathan Cross.
