BBC Philharmonic Orchestra 2025-26 Season

Richard Strauss’s Metamorphosen is a lament for strings, mourning the destruction of Europe in the World War II and the collapse of the musical civilisation that shaped and inspired him.

Violist Lawrence Power returns to perform Cassandra Miller’s acclaimed Viola Concerto, a piece heralded on its 2022 premiere as an instant classic.

When it comes to symphonies, Beethoven's Third symphony was a real game changer.

Who knew Haydn and hot cross buns might be related?

Rhapsodies on love, death, and lust

Adam Hickox makes his Bridgewater Hall debut in this sparkling and generous programme of technicolour musical delights.

Music from the court of Versailles begins and ends this sparkling exploration of the baroque.

Bluebeard’s Castle by Béla Bartók sits somewhere between a gothic tale of horror and a psychological dissection of a twisted relationship.

City Noir is John Adams’s musical tribute to half-lit rooms, venetian blinds, desperate men, dangerous women, secrets, lies, and the City of Angels.

A full orbit of the sun with the BBC Philharmonic Orchestra.
