Royal Philharmonic Orchestra at 80

A big anniversary calls for an even bigger celebration, and as the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra turns 80, that’s exactly what we’re hosting tonight – live from the spectacular surroundings of the Royal Albert Hall, where the RPO is proud to be Associate Orchestra. We’re looking to the future, with a thrilling new fanfare from the Master of the King’s Music, Errollyn Wallen CBE. We’re inviting friends, as the world-beating team of Julia Fischer, Pablo Ferrández and Jan Lisiecki come together for Beethoven’s joyous Triple Concerto. But above all, we’re making music on the grandest possible scale, as Vasily Petrenko conducts Richard Strauss’ big-hearted story of love, art and the sheer glory of a great orchestra raising the roof. Consider this your official party invitation!

Priority booking open to RPO members from Friday 24 April
