Yesterday Southbank Centre’s Shell Classic International 2010/11 season drew to a close with a star-studded performance from Daniel Barenboim, Pierre Boulez and Staatskapelle Berlin.

Barenboim and Boulez both return in Shell Classic International 2011/12 with major projects at Southbank Centre.

In October 2011 over one weekend we celebrate the musical giant and avant-garde figurehead of Pierre Boulez with performances from Ensemble intercontemporain, London Sinfonietta, Royal Academy of Music and almost all of his piano works in one day with Pierre-Laurent Aimard and Tamara Stefanovich.

 

In April 2012 Barenboim presents The Bruckner Project with Staatskapelle Berlin across three Royal Festival Hall concerts.
