Presenting John Adams’ exhilarating Short Ride in a Fast Machine, the dazzling virtuosity of Rachmaninov’s Third Piano Concerto, and Stravinsky’s combustible, colour-saturated The Firebird with vibrant new visuals.

2024 Leeds International Piano Competition winner Jaeden Izik-Dzurko takes centre stage for Rachmaninov’s vivacious Piano Concerto No. 3 where pulse-quickening passion and heart-stopping virtuosity combine in one of the great Romantic concertos.
