The music of Stravinsky, Ligeti and Birtwistle is<br />
combined with courses and the London premiere<br />
of Hans Abrahamsen’s piano concerto Left<br />
and a new commission by RPS award-winning<br />

David Atherton, George Benjamin, Vladimir<br />
Jurowski and the London Sinfonietta alumni for a<br />
celebration and look to the future.<br />
