Bertie Baigent conductor

Pure inspiration. ‘We’ll never do anything as good as that’ said Beethoven when he heard the music of Mozart – but he gave it his best shot, and in his brilliant Fourth Symphony his imagination runs riot: dancing, singing and turning cartwheels for joy. Bertie Baigent, winner of the Grand Prix at the 2022 Rotterdam International Conducting Competition, won’t hold back, in a concert of Beethoven at his most unbuttoned and Mozart at his most ravishing. There’s a good reason why Mozart’s Clarinet Concerto is one of the best-loved of all classical concertos – and with the LPO’s Principal Clarinet Benjamin Mellefont as soloist, you’ll hear why!
