London Symphony Orchestra: Half Six Fix

Tchaikovsky 6 with Gianandrea Noseda

,Hall
Gianandrea Noseda

Gianandrea Noseda conducts and introduces Tchaikovsky’s Sixth Symphony, deeply private and deeply felt.

Kick-start your evening with an informal performance of this masterwork, in which the composer pours out his emotions in an ardent torrent of music. 

In his letters, Tchaikovsky said that the meaning of his Sixth Symphony would remain a secret from audiences. We do know one thing: by ending it not with a triumphant finale but with an intimate lament, he created new, intensely personal possibilities for the musical form.

With Principal Guest Conductor Gianandrea Noseda at the helm, the LSO burns brightly.
