Leonidas Kavakos with the LSO in London

Description

Date: Thursday, 10 December 2026
Venue: Barbican Hall, Barbican, London

Athens-born violinist Leonidas Kavakos, one of the finest violinists in the world, joins the London Symphony Orchestra and conductor Gianandrea Noseda at the Barbican.

Kavakos plays Shostakovich’s Violin Concerto No. 2, a dark and intense work that suits his deep, serious sound.

The concert opens with Prokofiev’s suite from The Love for Three Oranges and, after the interval, finishes with Prokofiev’s suite from the ballet Chout.
