Prom 33 - Mark Simpson, Dutilleux and Elgar

Work:: Prom 33 (S358)

Part of the BBC Proms.

Production:: Mark Simpson, Dutilleux and Elgar (T196311647)

In his First Symphony, unveiled in Manchester in 1911, Edward Elgar saw beyond the recession in which Britain was languishing to express a ?massive hope for the future'. The symphony's noble main tune appears fragile at first. But when it returns at the end, it's carried home by an ecstatic orchestra filled with a spirit of uplifting optimism. The BBC Philharmonic and its Chief Conductor also present the London premiere of a work by its Composer in Association Mark Simpson and the marriage of modernity and beauty that is Dutilleux's cello concerto ?Tout un monde lointain...'.
