Another chance to hear the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra's new music director Andris Nelsons making his debut. The programme celebrates John Casken's birthday with his evocative Orion over Farne, transporting us to the night sky.
Plus Stephen Hough continuing his exploration of Tchaikovsky's Piano Concertos with the neglected No 2, and Stravinsky's first commission for Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, The Firebird.
