Suzy Klein introduces the LSO under Daniel Harding in Boulez, Messiaen and Bruckner.

Suzy Klein introduces the LSO under Daniel Harding with Sally Matthews (soprano) in Boulez's Livre pour cordes, Messiaen's Poemes pour Mi and Bruckner's Symphony No 4 (Romantic).

Suzy Klein introduces a performance given by the London Symphony Orchestra featuring music by Boulez, Messiaen and Bruckner.

Including Boulez's Livre pour cordes, which the composer based on one of his early works for string quartet, and revised it into an intimate, rhythmically complex piece for string orchestra. Soprano Sally Matthews joins the orchestra in one of the most voluptuous song cycles in French music: Mi was Messiaen's nickname for his wife and Poemes pour Mi is a musical love letter, a lyrical song cycle celebrating marriage. Bruckner himself described his Fourth Symphony as 'Romantic'. Much revised before finding enduring success in 1881, it evokes a richly harmonic fairytale landscape of castles and woodlands.

Jez Nelson presents pianist John Escreet in a gig played at Birmingham's CBSO Centre, featuring New York alto saxophonist David Binney.

Jez Nelson presents a gig by pianist John Escreet recorded at Birmingham's CBSO Centre in October 2008. Playing original music, Escreet's group features New York alto saxophonist David Binney who won both Downbeat's critics' and readers' polls in 2007. Escreet has become one of the most sought-after players on the contemporary New York scene through his lyrical, yet modern approach to jazz.

Escreet was born in Doncaster and studied music in the UK, but moved to New York in 2006 to undertake a Master's degree at the Manhattan School of Music, where Kenny Barron and Jason Moran taught him. Since then he has led several of his own groups as well as performing with some of New York's best musicians, including Will Vinson, Marcus Gilmore and Wayne Krantz.
