Pappano's transition from pit to podium continues in London, with fine results in a Barbican programme of Boulanger, Barber and Rachmaninov.

Little had planned to quit in August, but Covid-19 threw all her concert plans into disarray, but last night took a significant step towards the exit, bidding farewell to London’s Southbank Centre.
