Concert at Barbican with the LSO conducted by Sir Antonio Pappano and Pianist Yuja Wang

Tonight, we return to the Barbican Centre to hear Bartok's piano concerto No. 2 and Mahler's symphony No. 1.  

Tickets from £10.  To book your ticket, please click here


Bartok's piano concerto No. 2 -  For the piano player, it’s a finger breaking piece. It is one of the most challenging piano works in the repertoire.  Yuja Wang, widely considered as one of today's leading players, makes it looking impossibly easy.

If you wish to see her hands moving on the piano,  book a seat towards centre to left of the Auditorium.  (the piano will probably block your view of her hands if you book a seat too far right).

Several have booked, some sitting in circle, LHS of the auditorium.
