London Philharmonic Orchestra: Mozart and Mahler

Mahler's final word was 'Mozart'. And there's no doubt that when you place the two compsoers together, they throw a fascinating light on each other – especially when one of the works in question is Mahler's brightest and most elegant symphony, his Fourth. But there are ominous depths beneath its playful surface, just as the impassioned 24th Piano Concerto reveals a side of Mozart that's a million miles from periwigs and minuets. It's an inspired pairing – and an LPO debut for Lucas Debargue, the young French pianist whose intensely personal artistry caused a sensation at the 2015 Tchaikovsky Competition.
