About this event
The Music
After two years of close collaboration with the LSO, bold new works by Omri Kochavi and Sasha Scott – developed through the LSO Helen Hamlyn Panufnik Composers’ Scheme – are brought to life. Donghoon Shin brings his dynamic, shimmering style of composition to his debut Piano Concerto, written especially for the extraordinary Seong-Jin Cho.
Boulez’s 1975 Rituel transforms the stage into a sonic landscape. Players are positioned in distinct groups to create complex textures and effects, for one of his most accessible and arresting works.
The Performers
One of today’s most versatile and dynamic pianists, Seong-Jin Cho joins the LSO for this concert of musical riches, which forms part of his Artist Portrait series. Conductor Maxime Pascal returns for his second LSO Futures concert, following a critically acclaimed debut in 2025.
