About this event

110 years ago, Stravinsky鈥檚 The Rite of Spring blew classical music wide open - and we鈥檙e still dealing with the aftershock. Sounds become colours, orchestras erupt like volcanoes and a century dances to the pure, liberating energy of unchained rhythm. It鈥檚 an explosive climax to a concert in which sound itself is the star.

Conductor Ryan Wigglesworth is joined by recorder phenomenon Erik Bosgraaf in Anna Meredith鈥檚 Origami Songs as part of a sequence of music that swings from fragile beauty to elemental force, including music by Arvo Part and a rare performance of Stefan Niculescu鈥檚 stunning, explosive 1970s classic Ison II. Prepare to re-imagine the way you listen.

Ilan Volkov has had to withdraw from this concert. We are grateful to Ryan Wigglesworth who will conduct in his place at short notice.
