The London Philharmonic perform Sibelius

Karina Canellakis conducts the LPO in music by John Adams and Sibelius. The orchestra is joined by American-Israeli pianist Inon Barnatan for Gershwin's Piano Concerto.

The LPO's principal guest conductor, Karina Canellakis, conducts the orchestra in a programme of which Sibelius's radiant Fifth Symphony is the climax. Before that, the vibrant rhythms of John Adams's 1987 opera Nixon in China set the scene for Gershwin's jazz-infused Piano Concerto, a classic of its kind.
