On Thursday 19 October conductor Marin Alsop opens the Philharmonia’s series Let Freedom Ring: Celebrating the Sounds of America at the Royal Festival Hall in London. She talks us through her wide-ranging programme, the crosscurrents between ‘serious’ music and jazz, and why the Marcus Roberts Trio will be joining the orchestra for Gershwin’s Rhapsody in Blue.
