Sibelius: Violin Concerto

Sir Simon Rattle conducts Sibelius's Violin Concerto, live from the Barbican Hall, London.

In one of the great orchestra-conductor partnerships of our time, Simon Rattle conducts the Berlin Philharmonic in the second concert in their Sibelius cycle. Their 2015 London residency celebrates both Rattle's sixtieth birthday and the 150th anniversary this year of the birth of Sibelius, a composer close to Rattle's heart.
