London Symphony Orchestra/Sir Antonio Pappano

Walker, Bernstein & Walton, with Janine Jansen

Violinist Janine Jansen performing on the Barbican Hall stage. She is wearing a laced black top and has long dark hair.

Bringing together Walton’s turbulent first Symphony with passionate statements of love and outrage from two American greats.

Walker’s Sinfonia No 5, 'Visions' was his final work, composed when he was 96. It was written in response to a shocking act of racial violence. The composer’s outrage can be heard in its steely outbursts, restless energy, and urgent, jagged harmonies.

Bernstein has lively and learned conversations about love with writers from ancient Greece in his Serenade for violin and orchestra.

Walton’s powerful Symphony No 1 is a blistering journey from personal turmoil to a well-earned, celebratory ending.

The LSO and Pappano are the perfect team for these intensely dramatic works. Janine Jansen brings her radiant playing to Bernstein’s most passionate music.

The concert will finish at approximately 9.05pm (timings subject to change)
