Sir Colin Davis at 85<br />

You couldn’t mistake his decisive beat<br />

or propensity for drama.<br />

Geoff Brown, The Times<br />

In his 85th birthday year Sir Colin Davis focuses on<br />

composers with whom he is particularly associated.<br />

Mozart and Schubert bookend the series, and in<br />

between there is a particular focus on English<br />

composers – Elgar and Walton – as well as his<br />

beloved Sibelius and Beethoven. Sir Colin re-visits<br />

his operatic roots too with concert performances<br />

of Benjamin Britten’s The Turn of the Screw and<br />

will conduct the <strong>Orchestra</strong> and <strong>London</strong> <strong>Symphony</strong><br />

Chorus in Mozart’s Requiem.<br />

Mitsuko Uchida, Pianist<br />

Colin has the singular ability to<br />

share his deep love of music with<br />

audiences and musicians alike.<br />

His Berlioz and Sibelius were a<br />

revelation to music-lovers. But if<br />

I were to choose one composer<br />

whose joy and sorrow he can<br />

express with never-ending pleasure,<br />

it is Mozart. I feel privileged to have<br />

shared so much music with Colin.<br />
