In this evening's live concert from the Royal Albert Hall Simon Rattle conducts the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra in a typically eclectic programme. It features a new work, Drowned Out, by Mark-Anthony Turnage. "Takingthis piece for its London premiere feels as though we're bringing a member of the family with us," says Rattle. "He's produced some wonderful things for us and this marks the end of his four years as composer in residence." The concert opens with Sibelius's tone poem Tapiola, in the second half Maria Ewing sings Messiaen' s Poemes pour Mi, and the orchestra ends with LaMer by Debussy.
