CBSO give an outstanding UK première of Golijov's Azul and Shostakovich's Fifteenth

Clive Peacock, 9th March

As Birmingham-born Alpesh Chauhan builds his reputation towards becoming a conductor much in demand, so the CBSO finds itself in the fortunate position of securing the services of Mirga Gražytė-Tyla as Andris Nelsons’ successor as Music Director, with a chance to grow Chauhan as Assistant Conductor.
