Elgar's Cello Concerto
Brutalism meets orchestral beauty, the Barbican's Associate Orchestra, BBC Symphony Orchestra marks 40 years of the Barbican under the baton of chief conductor Sakari Oramo. Judith Weir's choral work Concrete pays homage to the Barbican – its idealism, its boldness, and the stories of the city from which it emerged, and Elgar's seminal work for cello and orchestra completes the programme performed by cellist Senja Rummukainen, a piece performed at the building's first public concert.
