Performances of John Adams at BBC Philharmonic Orchestra

In Steve Reich’s endlessly tessellating music, shapes emerge, solidify, uncouple, drift away, and begin to emerge anew.

City Noir is John Adams’s musical tribute to half-lit rooms, venetian blinds, desperate men, dangerous women, secrets, lies, and the City of Angels.

We continue our thrillingly up-close series at the RNCM with a heavyweight artistic collaboration – our Chief Conductor John Storgårds joins the acclaimed pianist Tamara Stefanovich in this exploration of the pure power of the piano.

We return to Blackpool for the first time in 8 years with an ambitious programme in Blackpool’s historic Opera House.

Beethoven’s epic, uplifting ‘Choral’ Symphony No. 9 sits alongside Roderick Williams’s Ave Verum Corpus Re-imagined, Pauline Oliveros’s Tuning Meditation and John Adams’s Absolute Jest.

Pianist Pavel Kolesnikov collaborates with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra at the RNCM for a programme of Mozart, Britten and John Adams.
