Professor Brian Cox and Daniel Harding: Symphonic Horizons, with the Britten Sinfonia

Britain’s favourite geek Professor Brian Cox – the physicist presenter of the BBC series Wonders of the Solar System – is joining forces with conductor Daniel Harding for this quasaric collision of science and classical music. Featuring mind-bending imagery and iconic orchestral music, Professor Cox will explore cosmic ideas and links between cosmology and the music of Mahler, Strauss and Sibelius. With a soundtrack supplied by the thundering expect a rousing evening illuminating what means to be human and live a small finite life in an infinite Universe. Phew. Maybe leave time for a hard drink afterwards.
