| Davies Symphony Hall, San Francisco, CA, San Francisco, CA 94102, United States Friday 24-May-13 06:30pm Robertson leads Ravel and Gershwin Ravel, who heard jazz in Harlem with Gershwin, was dumbfounded by the dazzling Rhapsody in Blue, which Gershwin played at a birthday party for the French composer. When Gershwin asked to study with him, Ravel said "It is better to write good Gershwin than bad Ravel." The jazz-influenced Concerto for the Left Hand was written for a pianist grievously injured during the First World War. The dark undertones of La Valse, an homage to Viennese waltz, suggest a furious farewell to gentility in post-war Europe. Elliott Carter's powerful Variations for Orchestra, another 20th-century masterwork, opens the program. | ||

She’ll be joined by violinists Elizabeth Wallfisch and Timmy Chooi and OSM Principal Oboe Ted Baskin.

| Southbank Centre: Royal Festival Hall, London, Belvedere Road, London SE1 8XX, United Kingdom Wednesday 29-May-13 07:30pm Royal Philharmonic Orchestra: Mozart and Mahler Elegant and emotive music from two of Vienna's finest composers.
Mozart's Third Violin Concerto was written when he was only 19. It is full of youthful charm, with a slow movement of tender romance. The final rondo features a lively dance-tune associated with Strasbourg, from which the concerto gets its nickname, 'Strasbourg'.
Mahler's Fourth Symphony, which opens with jingling sleigh-bells, is one of his most delicate. Yet there is all the contrast you'd expect from Mahler - a quirky scherzo, and a slow movement of yearning beauty. The symphony ends with a soprano solo unfolding a child's vision of Heaven.Image credit: Robert Taylor | ||

| Sage: Hall One, Gateshead, Gateshead, United Kingdom Thursday 30-May-13 07:30pm Danse Concertantes “I feel certain it shall please” wrote Mozart upon finishing his Paris symphony after a series of frustrating false-starts in France. The new symphony did just that, brimming with an effervescence, hope and freshness that tuned directly in to the city’s love for the bold and gregarious. Saint-Saëns, Stravinsky and Prokofiev all lived in Paris after Mozart, their music never losing that elegance, élan and energy which its citizens so adore. | ||

| Regent Hall, London, 275 Oxford Street, London W1C 2DJ, United Kingdom Friday 31-May-13 01:00pm Lunchtime Jazz The Royal Academy of Music presents a lunchtime concert of jazz. Sam Rapley is a up and coming young tenor player currently based in London, studying at the Royal Academy of Music with Stan Sulzmann. Originally a classical clarinettist, Rapley switched to jazz saxophone in his mid teens. Since then he has played with the likes of Dave Douglas, Iain Ballamy, James Taylor Quartet, Mike Walker, and has supported John Taylor Trio with his own band."
Sam says - the trio is a new project which is co-led by Alex Munk (guitar), Matt Robinson (piano) and myself (saxophone). We all studied together at the Royal Academy of Music and wanted to form a group more akin to a chamber ensemble rather than the traditional jazz small group setting. The reason for this was to open up new musical possibilities in the way that we write for the group and also to allow us to play in some different venues, such as this, which make us play very differently to how we would if we were playing in a jazz club.Price type: Free | ||
