Daniel Barenboim and his West-Eastern Divan Orchestra return to the Proms with a programme of emotion and sensation.

Polish folk dances pulse through Lutoslawski's vibrant Concerto for Orchestra, with its echoes of Stravinsky and Bartok. Its bracing rhythmic energy and reticent beauty offer the perfect foil to the melodic richness of Tchaikovsky's concerto.
