Not for nothing is Schubert’s expansive final symphony known as ‘The Great’ – it is music of broad vistas, lofty ambition, but also a sparkling vivacity and seamlessly stitched, intricate detail.

LPO Conductor Emeritus Vladamir Jurowski brings a depth of insight and imagination to this totemic work, and to the arresting drama of Beethoven’s work. He and violinist Vilde Frang are a perfectly attuned pairing to bring out the poetry and eloquence of Schumann’s concerto. Frang is making waves. A deeply expressive communicator with a luminous sound, and astonishing technical facility, she is an ever-thoughtful interpreter.
