Performer: Mark Simpson

A compelling concert at Liverpool’s Tung Auditorium offers a striking Josephine Stephenson’s UK premiere, dazzling John Adams and Steve Reich’s mesmerising Reich/Richter.

Energy and virtuosity underpin this performance by wind players – and one string performer – from the RLPO, led by a local legend playing on his home turf. 

Astonishing virtuosity for the clarinet along with one of the great wartime symphonies ensured a fascinating evening at the 2018 Proms.
