Performer: Mark van de Wiel

Franck's Symphony in D minor proves the highlight of a mixed Philharmonia matinee at the Southbank Centre. 

Musical cross-pollination came to life in London Sinfonietta’s electrifying performance, in a seamless blend of theatre, history and virtuosic playing.

Engaging performances, including two world premieres, are served up by one of Kings Place's partners in the ‘Scotland Unwrapped’ season. 

Inside Queen Elizabeth Hall, a centenary celebration of György Ligeti unfolds – a mesmerising blend of rhythmic exuberance and eerie textures, alongside pieces by Conlon Nancarrow and Unsuk Chin.

The Greek composer's centenary is marked by the London Sinfonietta, Colin Currie Group and the JACK Quartet. 

New and old rubbed shoulders in this thrilling Philharmonia Orchestra concert of Elgar and Joseph Phibbs.

We caught up with Joe Phibbs and Mark van de Wiel ahead the premiere of a new clarinet concerto next week.
