Crossing Generations
Southbank Centre, Queen Elizabeth Hall, SE1 8XX , [Venue Details]The London Philharmonic Orchestra takes us on a journey through time and space with innovative works by Frank Zappa, Bohuslav Martinů and Dinuk Wijeratne.
Frank Zappa wove psychedelic new sounds from the underbelly of 1960s pop culture – aiming straight for the sonic G-spot.
Bohuslav Martinů – a Czech in exile – looked homeward, and crafted a lush, fantastic dream of a symphony as he travelled from New York to the boulevards of Paris.
And the Sri Lankan-born Canadian composer Dinuk Wijeratne tells his own intensely personal tale of displacement and hope, as Kevin John Edusei conducts his new Clarinet Concerto with the artist for whom it was created – the phenomenal Syrian clarinettist Kinan Azmeh.

Frank Zappa: The dog breath variations from Uncle Meat; Outrage at Valdez; G Spot Tornado
Dinuk Wijeratne: Concerto for clarinet, piano & strings (European premiere)
