Performer: Abel Selaocoe

Aurora Orchestra turn Shostakovich's Fifth Symphony inside out to exhilarating effect in a dazzling performance in their Scottish debut. Abel Selaocoe’s Four Spirits, on the other hand, has surface shine but not much substance.

After nearly axing the ensemble last year, the BBC celebrates 100 years of the BBC Singers with a rapturously received programme. 

Manchester Collective and Abel Selaocoe aim to reshape classical music with their collaboration Sirocco. Their breathtaking performance at the 92nd Street Y is more rock concert than chamber recital.
