London Symphony Orchestra/Gianandrea Noseda

Beethoven & Prokofiev, with Alice Sara Ott

Pianist Alice Sara Ott performing on the Barbican Hall stage. She has short black hair and is wearing a sleevless black top.

Prokofiev’s mind-blowing second Symphony, plus early Beethoven and a charming opener from Schubert.

Schubert’s Die Zauberharfe is from one of his few stageworks, and this is its cheerfully bustling overture.

Beethoven’s Piano Concerto No 1 is a tribute to the composer’s formidable skill at the keyboard. It has a lightness of touch alongside hints of the storminess Beethoven would become known for.

Prokofiev’s Second Symphony is a whirlwind. The first movement is forceful and with an edge-of-the-seat intensity. The second takes a gentle theme through a series of intricate variations.

Alice Sara Ott brings her customary brilliance and fire to the Concerto, elegantly supported by the LSO.

The concert will finish at approximately 8.55pm, including a 20-minute interval (timings subject to change).
