LCO New: Explore
Come and hear world premiere performances of the 4 winning compositions from the 8 Call for Scores shortlisted compositions.
Hear soloist Pekka Kuusisto in conversation with LCO Composer in Residence Graham Fitkin on the subject of contemporary
music.
He jams with a Norwegian 'noise'
band, and makes Bartok sound as ugly as he can. But violinist Pekka
Kuusisto may be the best thing to happen to classical music in years.
The Guardian
Do come and support LCO in its pilot education project dedicated to the growth of contemporary music in the UK.
