Experience Beethoven’s revolutionary, sole Violin Concerto performed by one of the instrument’s greatest players worldwide.
With its groundbreaking sense of scale, thrillingly athletic solo part, and opulent orchestration, Beethoven’s masterwork set a new precedent for the fiery Romantic era concertos that followed. Maxim Vengerov and the London Symphony Orchestra are celebrated for delivering ‘as fine a performance of this noble work as any available’ (The Guardian).
Sir Antonio Pappano also leads the Orchestra in Shostakovich’s intensely powerful Symphony No. 8.
