Live, Video: Kritiken zu klassischen Konzerten, Opern, Ballett und Tanz finden | Symphony no. 3, "Pastoral"

The BBC Philharmonic and Mark Wigglesworth present moving accounts of two symphonies, plus eloquent singing from Alessandro Fisher in the orchestral version of On Wenlock Edge.

Sir Simon Rattle and the LSO open their 2021-22 season with an eclectic mix of British music that sees the orchestra at its most lustrous. 

Even if Hubert Parry was overshadowed by Holst and Vaughan Williams, this was a splendid concert of British music. 

To mark the centenary of the Battle of the Somme, Mark Elder and the London Symphony Orchestra brought together music with a connection to the First World War.

Vaughan Williams' Pastoral Symphony is anything but "lambkins frisking", drawing on the composer's experiences in the First World War. In this poignant concert, it was partnered by a trio of works by composers - from both sides of the trenches - who died in action. 

Leamington Sinfonia addresses various aspects of war and leave a lasting impression with Holst.
