BBC SSO 2025-26 Season Tchaikovsky's Pathétique Symphony

With its sweeping melodies and raw emotion, Tchaikovsky’s famous Pathétique is a powerful exploration of love, loss and fate. It’s music that speaks from the heart, and under Principal Guest Conductor Delyana Lazarova’s baton, every note tells a story.

And Duo Jatekok – a “vivacious” (The Scotsman) French piano duo with a name inspired by playfulness – lights the touchpaper on a firecracker of a double concerto, composed by a teenage genius on a mission to astonish the world.

UPDATE
Please note that Lutosławski's 'Little Suite' will no longer be performed in this concert due to requirements of the live broadcast recording.
