Prom 36 - Marin Alsop Conducts The Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra
Work:: Prom 36 (S361)
Part of the BBC Proms.
Production:: Marin Alsop Conducts The Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra (T01839317255)
Marin Alsop and the Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra are joined by Proms regular and former BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist Benjamin Grosvenor for Prokofiev's ferociously demanding Piano Concerto No. 3. 'My new symphony,' wrote Dvorák of his Seventh, 'must ... make a stir in the world.' The result does just that, emerging from a brooding opening into rhapsodic warmth, animated by folk dances and a seemingly endless stream of melodies. This contrasts with the deliciously grotesque episodes of Bartok's
The Miraculous Mandarin suite; and tonight's orchestra and conductor also bring a new work by Viennese composer Hannah Eisendle, having given its premiere in March.
