  • Date of change: 20 Jun 23 - T02082001876

Prom 35 - Mahler's 10th Symphony

Prom 35

Work:: Prom 35 (S360)

Part of the BBC Proms.

Production:: Mahler's 10th Symphony (T02082001876)

Grief and loss haunt an emotionally charged programme from Sir Andrew Davis and the BBC Symphony Orchestra pairing two 20th-century masterpieces, each premiered after their composers' deaths. Berg's Violin Concerto weaves quotations from Bach into music contrasting expressive Romanticism with cooler serial techniques. American-Canadian violinist Leila Josefowicz is the soloist. Heard here in Deryck Cooke's performing version, Mahler's Symphony No. 10 is another deeply personal work, charged with anguished love for an unfaithful wife, and written on the brink of the composer's own final illness.
