Vladimir Ashkenazy opens his landmark Sibelius series, marking the composer's 150th anniversary.

Sibelius was initially determined to become a world-class violinist and even got as far as an audition with the Vienna Philharmonic. Had he succeeded, some of finest orchestral music of the 20th century may never have been written. The most immediate outcome was the glorious Violin Concerto, composed for the virtuoso which Sibelius never became.

6pm at Royal Festival Hall - Pre-concert recital. Recital by a winner of the Martin Musical Scholarship Fund. Free
