Resumo

Oliver Knussen's Symphony in One Movement is his latest symphony. It is also his earliest – originally composed as the Concerto for Orchestra in 1969, and premièred by the 17-year old Knussen and the London Symphony Orchestra, with André Previn playing the flamboyant piano part. 33 years later, the piece has finally reached its definitive form, and Knussen conducted the BBC Symphony Orchestra in its world première as part of an all-Knussen programme in celebration of his 50th birthday, at the Barbican Hall on 1 November.
