Southbank Centre, Belvedere Rd, Lambeth, London SE1 8XX, United Kingdom

Thrilled as we are at the prospect of the spell-binding Daniel Hope and Alban Gerhardt chasing each other through the labyrinth of the Philip Glass Double Concerto for Violin and Cello, our greater interest in this program is the 10th-anniversary performance of Ravi Shankar’s Symphony. As at the premiere with the same orchestra, the sitar-master’s daughter and number-one disciple Anoushka provides the living link to the spark of creation. Karen Kamensek conducts. —M.G.
