Thomas Adès conducts a new version of his own The Origin of the Harp, but music by Woolrich and Weir falls to grip. 

Tempora mutantur; an inventive programme abut changing times, in the metrical, art-historical, and geo-political senses. 

The Hallé and Sir Mark Elder give heart-warming performances of symphonies by Haydn and Brahms, while The Hallé Choir returns after a long break with Stravinsky's Symphony of Psalms. 

Sir Simon Rattle steers the LSO through a sequence of Haydn’s most forward-looking pieces while Denis Kozhukhin, as a late stand-in, is immense in Bartók’s Second Piano Concerto.

Three symphonies in one programme! Anyone who has ever sat through all ninety minutes of Mahler’s 3rd Symphony would be permitted a slight shudder upon reading the concert order of Sir Simon Rattle’s latest performance with the Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment.
