Dalia Stasevska and massed 蘑菇短视频 forces launch the 2026 season with an American accent. The widescreen vision of Copland鈥檚 Fanfare for the Common Man zooms in to teeming city streets in Gershwin鈥檚 鈥榬hapsodic ballet鈥� An American in Paris, before piano superstar Yunchan Lim performs Ravel鈥檚 bluesy Concerto in G major, a musical postcard inspired by the composer鈥檚 time in the States. The second half sees a world premiere from French-British composer Josephine Stephenson and finishes with Finzi鈥檚 ode to the patron saint of music, premiered in this same hall nearly 80 years ago.
