Philharmonia Orchestra
Conducted by Christoph von Dohnanyi

Now in his 86th year, Christoph von Dohnanyi is showing no signs of slowing down. This season he has conducted major orchestras across Europe and North America - he is still celebrated for his 20 years with the Cleveland Orchestra, where he is now their Music Director Laureate, and his relationship with the Philharmonia stretches back to 1994. Tonght's soloists are somewhat of a different generation - Arabella Steinbacher and Lawrence Power are both in their thirties, and are both widely acclaimed as chamber musicians as well as concerto soloists.

Followed by highlights from the Park Lane Group's memorial concert for John McCabe, given earlier this month.
