Performer: Thomas Adès

If Prokofiev’s original intention in his Second Piano Concerto was shock and awe, Yuja Wang gives exactly the right performance with the Los Angeles Philharmonic.

Yuja Wang returns to the New York Philharmonic with Rautavaara’s dazzling First Piano Concerto in a probing program curated and conducted by Thomas Adès.

The composer and conductor celebrates Pierre Boulez's 100th birthday in fine fashion with a smart program and fervent work from both sides of the podium.

Thomas Adès and the London Symphony Orchestra make the best possible case for SIbelius' lesser played symphonies, the Fourth and Sixth and Johan Dalene turns on the romanticism in Rautavaara.

Textures, tensions and transformations across musical perspectives imbue the Tanglewood programme Thomas Adès inherited from Esa-Pekka Salonen. 

Thomas Adès serves up an astronomical programme, pairing his Piano Concerto and Paradiso with Holst’s crowd favourite, The Planets.

The appointment marks the first formal conducting title of Adèsʼ career, during which he has enjoyed a close relationship with the orchestra as Composer-in-Association.

In residence in Manchester with the Hallé, Thomas Adès talks about recent pieces Aquifer and Wreath, and how bigness and smallness are never exactly quantifiable.
