The quirky fun music of Kabalevsky

Based in Manchester, the BBC Philharmonic has established an international reputation, having travelled extensively to the USA, the Far East, South America and all over Europe. Its Principal Conductor is Yan Pascal Tortelier, Sir Edward Downes is Conductor Emeritus and Vassily Sinaisky (Music Director of the Moscow Philharmonic) is Principal Guest Conductor.

The Orchestra records over one hundred programmes annually for BBC Radio 3 and BBC Television both in the studio and in public concerts all over Britain. Under its exclusive Chandos contract the BBC Philharmonic displays an extensive repertoire featuring artists such as Gennady Rozhdestvensky, Matthias Bamert and Richard Hickox as well as its own conductors.
