Prom 18 - Katia and Marielle Labeque
Work:: Prom 18 (S345)
Part of the BBC Proms.
Production:: Katia and Marielle Labeque (T01835480560)
Sisters Katia and Marielle Labeque perform Mozart's Concerto for two pianos as a complement to our focus on the composer's late piano concertos. Written in the 1770s for Mozart and his own sister ?Nannerl' to perform, it's a work that delights in the interplay of dialogue, with a slow movement that is a tender conversation between friends. Intimacy gives way to epic gestures in Shostakovich's sprawling ?Leningrad' Symphony - one of the giants of the symphonic repertoire, and a passionate musical testament to the 25 million Soviet citizens killed in the Second World War. Finish time approx 21:15
