Rachmaninoff was probably not concerned about his carbon footprint, but his reworking of themes by Paganini is musical recycling at its most creative. Join the BSO as it goes green, an event which will include a display of designer Nina Valenti's concert gown made from more than 6,000 juice boxes, originally worn by pianist Soyeon Lee.
Berlioz: Roman Carnival Overture
Rachmaninoff: Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini
Rimsky-Korsakov: Scheherazade
