City of London Sinfonia together with internationally renowned violinist Tasmin Little, students of the Royal Academy of Music and the Holst Singers pay tribute to UK master composer Nicholas Maw, who passed away in 2009.
The evening's performance features major milestones of Maw's career including the Concert Suite from his masterful opera Sophie's Choice and the Violin Concerto which Financial Times critic Andrew Clark described as " glorious affirmation of how to pursue Romantic tradition in contemporary form".
