A concerto for orchestra is the ultimate sonic spectacular – specially created to show every player at their sparkling best.
And when those players are as inspirational as the members of the CBSO Youth Orchestra, why wouldn’t you want to show them off? Lutosławski’s glittering showpiece does exactly that, while the remarkable young American violinist Randall Goosby shares his own brand of magic, in the world’s favourite violin concerto.
