Work: Nocturne, for violin and piano

Two technical mishaps punctuate the evening, but Hilary Hahn maintains poise throughout a French programme crowned by a finely judged, deeply expressive performance of Fauré. 

Pappano's transition from pit to podium continues in London, with fine results in a Barbican programme of Boulanger, Barber and Rachmaninov. 

A lunchtime concert with principal players from the Royal Northern Sinfonia and Dinis Sousa offers a delectable treat.
