London Symphony Orchestra

In Sir Antonio Pappano’s first concerts as Chief Conductor, expect a James
MacMillan premiere (Concerto for Orchestra) and collaborations with Yuja Wang and

Anna Lapwood. The season shines a light on British masters including Walton,
Maconchy and Vaughan Williams, continuing the LSO’s cycle of his symphonies.
Conductor Laureate Michael Tilson Thomas visits in October to celebrate turning 80

(Mahler’s Symphony No 2); and in November, André J Thomas leads a celebration
of symphonic gospel, with the LSO and a chorus of more than 250 voices.

Identity is the theme this season. Indian Carnatic song meets Western classical
music in Māyā, a new piece from Artistic Partner Rushil Ranjan performed at the
Stoller Hall in October. In November, the RNCM Concert Hall hosts a musical

journey into the Scottish Highlands with a new commission from composer Donald
Grant and his own arrangements of traditional Scottish tunes and Gaelic songs.

Artistic Partner Daniel Pioro joins the orchestra for Vivaldi’s The Four Seasons in
January, and Mozart horn concertos continue the ensemble’s Mozart, Made in

Manchester series in April and May.
