Saxophonist Jess Gillam has become a household name in no time at all – she’s one of those artists who can light up a room with anything she plays. Tonight, together with conductor Gemma New, she champions Glazunov’s luscious Saxophone Concerto: the glowing heart of a concert that dances through Gershwin’s Paris, Ligeti’s fantasy world and Mussorgsky’s spectacular musical picture gallery: witches, troubadours, luminous skulls and dancing chickens, brought to life in some of the most dazzling music you’ll ever hear.
