Tchaikovsky's early trio of symphonies have long lived in the shadow of the three that followed. Following his acclaimed Mariinsky DVD of the final three symphonies, which received Choc de l'annee in France, Valery Gergiev conducts outstanding performances of the earlier works with the LSO. Tchaikovsky's early symphonies are full of the rich expressive melodies, for which he had a natural talent, with influences of Russian nationalism and folk tunes, particularly in the 'Little Russian', No. 2.

Throughout the Autumn Valery Gergiev will conduct the complete Brahms and Szymanowski cycles with the LSO in London, Edinburgh, Paris and Luxembourg. They also tour to the USA and Germany. Gergiev's recent recordings on LSO Live include an acclaimed recording of Rachmaninov's Symphonic Dances and
