Prom 42 - Elgar, Chopin and Strauss
Work:: Prom 42 (S5973)
Part of the BBC Proms.
Production:: Elgar, Chopin and Strauss (T1993534160)
International Chopin Piano Competition-winner Seong-Jin Cho is one of the world's most exciting young pianists, praised for his ‘remarkable technique' and the elegance of his interpretations. Who better to perform Chopin's Piano Concerto No. 1 - a heady combination of brilliance and poetry, its slow movement a vision of ‘a beloved landscape on a moonlit spring night'. Could that landscape perhaps be Italian? Italy's warmth and summer sunshine suffuse both Elgar's bucolic In the South overture and Strauss's tone-poem Aus Italien, each inspired by a visit to the country.
