Philharmonia Orchestra: City of Light - 1900-1950

We’re delighted to bring to Leicester Principal Conductor and Artistic Advisor Esa-Pekka Salonen’s flagship project, City of Light: Paris 1900-1950. The Franco-Russian connection in the early 1900s, epitomised by Diaghilev’s Ballets Russes, produced orchestral music of unmatched luxuriant colour. The ballet music Stravinsky composed for Diaghilev, inspired by an exotic Russian legend, is paired with the dark, brooding colours of Ravel’s Piano Concerto for the Left Hand.

7.30pm start.
Tickets between £5 and £36.
