Concertante

Classical music fans take note - No less than six new commissions are premiered here, in this exciting performance at the Southbank Centre.

Composers from the Royal Academy of Music have penned the pieces, inspired by Jarrell's Droben Schmettert Ein Greler Stein. Each one has been written especially for members of the London Sinfnietta accompanied by five musicians from the Royal Academy of Music.
