Prom 46

Prom 46

Work:: Prom 46 (S5977)

Part of the BBC Proms.

Production:: (T01942350514)

The Philharmonia and its Principal Conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen are joined by one of today's leading French pianists in Ravel's fiendish test of the left hand, stretching ears as much as fingers in a racy, sometimes macabre mix of styles from Romantic to jazz. In the climax to our 75th-birthday celebrations for Estonian Arvo Pärt, Salonen conducts the composer's first symphony for over 35 years, having given the world premiere last year with the Los Angeles Philharmonic. Mosolov's clangorous outburst of 1920s industrial optimism, unheard at the Proms for 70 years, is complemented by Scriabin's breathtakingly prolonged crescendo of mystical sensuality. Finish time: approx. 21:00
