Hannu Lintu conducts the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Symphony Orchestra

Works by Stravinsky and John Adams, the UK premiere of Bernard Rands' Symphonic Fantasy, and Alexander Malofeev is the soloist in Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No.3.

Works by Stravinsky and John Adams, the UK premiere of Bernard Rands' Symphonic Fantasy, and Alexander Malofeev is the soloist in Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No.3.

It's all about colour, as four master-entertainers put on a show. The young Prokofiev dazzles the crowds in jazz-age Europe; Stravinsky’s nightingale spins a fabulous song and John Adams makes supercharged mischief with the most basic elements of western music. First, though, a major new statement from a living master: the world premiere of British-American composer Bernard Rands’s Symphonic Fantasy.

Live at the Barbican, presented by Ian Skelly.
