New season at the LSO

After a successful summer residency in Aix-en-Provence, the LSO will be back in town from September.

The London Symphony Orchestra’s new season opens in just a few weeks' time.

After a run of 10 performances at the Aix-en-Provence festival, the 2013/14 season kicks off with a concert performance of Verdi’s Rigoletto, and through the year features guest appearances from Mitsuko Uchida, Bernard Haitink, Emanuel Ax, Evgeny Kissin, Maxim Vengerov, Anne-Sophie Mutter, Yuja Wang, and Sir Simon Rattle.

Singing Sundays is perfect for choral music fans, and piano connoisseurs won’t want to miss Yuja Wang’s UBS Soundscapes: LSO Artist Portrait.

New guest conductors will be joining the Orchestra as part of the LSO Invites series, and Music Alchemists offers the scintillating opportunity to hear some of the world’s greatest conductors live in London. Meanwhile, Principal Conductor Valery Gergiev’s Berlioz series reveals the full drama and passion of the French Romantic composer, and Music in Colour offers kaleidoscopic and evocative music from synaesthetes Scriabin and Messiaen.

Finally, for those who fancy trying something off the beaten track, there are cross-cultural Eclectica concerts, and new British Sounds alongside works by Elgar, Walton and Britten.

Tickets are selling fast, so book yours now to ensure you don't miss out.
