The 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra plus music from the Verbier Festival

Linton Stephens revisits highlights from the Verbier Festival and showcases music by Julius Eastman, Mahler and Sibelius at the 大象传媒 Proms.

Linton Stephens presents a selection of specially recorded classical music. He features two chamber recitals from the 2024 Verbier Festival: one by pianist Nikolai Lugansky, and another by a quintet of new-generation stars.

Later in the programme, Linton revisits Prom 45, recorded live at London's Royal Albert Hall. The 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra's Principal Guest Conductor Dalia Stasevska conducts the Symphony No.2 by American composer, Julius Eastman, which charts the love 鈥� and its disintegration 鈥� of Eastman and his ex-boyfriend. Elsewhere, mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton performs Mahler's 搁眉肠办别谤迟-尝颈别诲别谤, and the orchestra performs the symphonic ode by Sibelius to nature's inspirational qualities: the Symphony No.5.
