An acclaimed conductor and pianist as well as a composer, Thomas Adès has outgrown his status as the wunderkind of the British scene and become one of the most imposing figures in contemporary music. For his LSO Live debut, he conducts all of his seminal 'Trilogy' works - Asyla, Tevot & Polaris - pieces that not only occupy a special place in his output, but in modern classical music as a whole.
