Life is celebrated and loss mourned in music spanning over 200 years. The BBC Philharmonic and its Principal Guest Conductor Ben Gernon pair Beethoven’s majestic final piano concerto – for which we welcome back Paul Lewis, who played all five Beethoven piano concertos in the 2010 season – with Brahms’s sunny Second Symphony, whose lyrical, pastoral spirit harks back to the earlier composer’s own ‘Pastoral’ Symphony (No. 6). The concert opens in a more sombre, contemplative mood with the world premiere of Tansy Davies’s What Did We See? – a meditation on death, healing and transcendence that builds on material from the composer’s recent 9/11-inspired opera Between Worlds.

Tickets £7.50 - £41
