LSO: Rattle conducts Tippett, Turnage and Vaughan Williams

An all-British programme of Tippett, Turnage and Vaughan Williams inspired by opera and jazz – including an unmissable world premiere, to celebrate Sir Simon Rattle’s 70th birthday. Rattle leads the LSO players across a glorious range of orchestral colours and styles, joined by the legendary John Scofield for a brand new Guitar Concerto. In Rattle’s own words, ‘Who better to be playing this extraordinary British music than the London Symphony Orchestra?’ PROGRAM Tippett: Ritual Dances from Midsummer Marriage; Turnage: Sco – Guitar Concerto (world premiere); Vaughan Williams: Symphony No 5
