Gustavo Dudamel and the Simón Bolívar Symphony Orchestra of Venezuela return to their London home.
In a spectacular all-Stravinsky programme they offset the carnivalesque sounds of Petrushka, about a puppet who comes to life at a fair in St Petersburg, against the electrifying rhythmic force of The Rite of Spring, whose primeval eruptions of sound culminate in a shattering dance of death.
