Soile Isokoski (soprano), Alison Bell (soprano), Members of the LPO

Schoenberg and Strauss dominated much of European musical discourse for over half a century, and yet their respective reputations are almost diametrically opposed.

Lovers of big orchestral concerts will relish this opportunity to hear a reduced LPO in two early Schoenberg classics, interwoven with some of Strauss’s radiant Indian summer masterpieces.

And no need to persuade anyone of the special treat in store when Soile Isokoski steps forth to sing the intimate Four Last Songs.
