Thomas Adès reimagines the music of François Couperin, fragments of the past meeting the present in kaleidoscopic explosions of colour. Tom Poster joins us for Ravel’s Piano Concerto: jazz, classical and folk influences interweave in a masterpiece of pure entertainment.
Waltz through a glittering ball, enter a feverish dream, march to your own execution, and spin into dark delirium at a witches’ sabbath. Berlioz’s epoch-making Symphonie fantastique unfolds as a cinematic fantasy full of wild imagination and demonic madness, by turns gorgeous and grotesque.
