London Symphony Orchestra/Gianandrea Noseda

Sibelius’ icy Violin Concerto offers a breathtaking window onto snow-swept Finland, while Prokofiev conjures comedy and nightmares in two vivid ballet suites. Prokofiev’s operas contain some of his most characterful music – this concert begins with the lyrical grandeur and neo-Classical elegance of the Summer Night Suite from Betrothal in a Monastery.
