Tonight, it's time for the London Sinfonietta.

The London Sinfonietta promise a very special evening featuring the first ever UK performance of one of Zappa's epic and most popular classical pieces, with perfomers including actor Kwame Kwei-Armah as Greggery. Alongside The Adventures of Greggery Peccary, the London Sinfonietta play Zappa's Revised Music for a Low Budget Orchestra and pieces by two giants of 20th century classical music who inspired his own compositions - Pierre Boulez (Memoriale) and Edgar Varèse (Octandre). The performance also includes a solo set by multi-instrumentalist and Zappa band stalwart, Jeff Simmons.
