Rufus Wainwright, one of the leading singer-songwriters of his generation, performs the UK premiere of his exquisite settings of five of Shakespeare's sonnets with the BBC Symphony Orchestra in a Shakespeare-inspired evening. The evening features readings of the sonnets by Sian Phillips, one of the UK's finest actors, music from Prokofiev's ballet Romeo and Juliet, the Much Ado About Nothing Suite by the great Hollywood composer Erich Korngold and John Adams's rollicking Lollapalooza.
