Prom 32 - Beethoven, Bruch & Walton
Work:: Prom 32 (S357)
Part of the BBC Proms.
Production:: Beethoven, Bruch & Walton (T0171302456)
In his First Symphony Beethoven retained the 18th-century grace and wit of Haydn and Mozart, adding his own forward-looking innovations. Bruch's First Violin Concerto is pure, swooning 19th- century Romanticism, while Walton's Henry V recalls a golden age of 20th-century film music. Sir Neville Marriner, 90 this year, returns to conduct the arrangement of Henry V he himself premiered in 1988. He is joined by Joshua Bell, the Music Director of The Academy of St Martin in the Fields, who appears as both director and soloist. Finish time approx. 18:20
