The London Sinfonietta illuminates with virtuosic fireworks from different musical and cultural traditions, culminating in the brilliance of György Ligeti.

The sounds of the Far East in Dai Fujikura’s Shamisen Concerto are tempered by ‘a cadenza-like solo of dizzying rapidity that evokes prog-rock guitar as much as Paganini’, according to the New York Times.

Meanwhile, Tania León’s Rítmicas is based on ‘a rainbow of polyrhythmic inventions emerging from the Son and Guaguancó clave’ of Cuba.

The micropolyphonic textures of the oldest piece in tonight’s programme, György Ligeti’s Chamber Concerto, still sound as new as at its premiere in 1970.
