Organised by London Symphony Orchestra
A trio with LSO musicians Rebecca Gilliver and Juliana Koch closes our 2021 series of Summer Shorts, featuring music by Robert Schumann and Nadia Boulanger. They end the programme with Prokofiev's Violin Sonata No 2, which begins gently, before hurtling towards a thrilling finale.

ABOUT SUMMER SHORTS
Summer Shorts take place every Friday this August, as we throw open our doors on Old Street for short, 45-minute performances, with concerts at 11am and 1pm (live streamed). There will be opportunities to chat to the musicians and ask them your burning questions – about the music, their instruments, anything at all! Everyone is welcome, including families.
This series of concerts is made possible by the kind support of the Huo Family Foundation.
