The BBC Symphony Orchestra and their guest principal conductor Dalia Stasevska bring you an evening of stirring and poignant music from the Barbican in London. Starting with Elgar’s hauntingly beautiful Cello Concerto, performed by multi-award-winning Argentine cellist Sol Gabetta, the evening culminates in Sibelius’s electrifyingly stormy First Symphony.

In between, there’s a surprise in store. The orchestra performs A Party with Auntie, a piece written by Iain Farrington to celebrate the BBC’s 100th anniversary that features no less than 15 BBC theme tunes hidden within Iain’s own original music. Show less
