Rarely-heard Stravinsky piano concertos are coupled with Mozart symphonies with Hans Graf, Alexei Volodin and the Singapore Symphony. 

Kirill Gerstein und Thomas Adès sorgen für einen unvergesslichen Strawinsky-Abend in der Elbphilharmonie.

The RLPO and Vasily Petrenko gave a fine concert of lesser-known Stravinsky to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the composer's death, including the Concerto for Piano and Wind Instruments with Steven Osborne as soloist. 

In their generous all-Stravinsky programme, Ludovic Morlot and Seattle Symphony uncover the hidden beauties of the neglected Perséphone through an innovative collaboration with visual artist Michael Curry.

Concerts conducted by Oliver Knussen are always impeccably programmed, with surprising connections often teased out between unusual pieces. His 2013 Proms appearance was no exception to this rule, juxtaposing two contrasting works for piano and orchestra by Igor Stravinsky, in between a symphonic sandwich of orchestral pieces by Hans Werner Henze and Michael Tippett.

The day before Stravinsky’s 131st birthday, the Auckland Chamber Orchestra and conductor Peter Scholes presented a programme built around the Russian composer’s Concerto for Piano and Wind Instruments and featuring works by Lyell Cresswell, George Antheil and Brett Dean. Lyell Cresswell is a New Zealand composer currently living in Scotland.

There are some concerts where you are confronted with the same emotions from start to finish, concerts with pieces that have a similar feel and similar impact throughout. Tonight’s concert was not one of those: it varied from funny (Jeux), to serene (Prélude), to confusing (Concerto for piano and winds).
