The London Coliseum, St. Martin's Lane, London WC2N 4ES, United Kingdom Thursday 23-May-13 07:30pm Wozzeck (Berg, Alban (1885-1935)) English National Opera Wozzeck tells the story of a simple soldier, troubled by visions, who murders his unfaithful partner and dies, leaving behind an orphaned child. Berg’s early 20th-century masterpiece comes to ENO for the first time in 25 years. This new production is by acclaimed director Carrie Cracknell. One of the most exciting young British directors of her generation, Carrie Cracknell is an Associate Director at the Young Vic, where her recent production of A Doll’s House was a critical success (‘If you ever see a production of a play, see this one’ Sunday Telegraph; ‘Carrie Cracknell ... set the Young Vic ablaze with her production over the summer ... Ibsen’s play reconsidered with fresh rabid emotion’ New York Times; ‘The best production of an Ibsen I’ve ever seen’ Kerry Shale, BBC Radio 4 Saturday Review). Tickets £16 - £99.

Bridgewater Hall, Manchester, Manchester M2 3WS, United Kingdom Thursday 23-May-13 07:30pm The Hallé Paul Lewis is internationally recognised as one of the leading pianists of his generation. An acclaimed interpreter of the classical repertoire, here he performs Mozart’s exquisite A major concerto. Although clouds occasionally darken the Mozartian sky, the work is largely a sunny affair, particularly its ebullient finale. The concert begins with a new piece by the Hallé’s Associate Composer Helen Grime, while after the interval Sir Mark conducts Mahler’s First Symphony. This remarkable work begins with bird-calls and distant military fanfares before proceeding via a wonderfully rustic Ländler and an evocation of a Jewish funeral to its inspirational, life-affirming conclusion.

Oslo Concert Hall (Konserthus), Oslo 0250, Norway Thursday 23-May-13 07:30pm Saraste's farewell as chief conductor This is by no means a farewell concert as Saraste will be returning as guest conductor already in the 2013–2014 season. At the same time, these concerts mark the end of a seven-year engagement with us in Oslo as well as an extremely important chapter in the orchestra’s artistic history. It will be next to impossible to leave the concert hall unmoved when the final chorus of Mahler’s’ symphony no. 2 finishes with “Bereite dich zu leben”.

Donald and Maureen Green Music Center: Weill Hall, Sonoma, CA, 1801 East Cotati Ave, Rohnert Park, Sonoma, 94928, United States Thursday 23-May-13 08:00pm 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. Carter, Elliott (1908-2012), Variations for Orchestra Ravel, Maurice (1875-1937), Piano Concerto in D major for the left hand Gershwin, George (1898-1937), Rhapsody in Blue Ravel, Maurice (1875-1937), La Valse, for orchestra David Robertson, Conductor San Francisco Symphony Marc-André Hamelin, Piano
