Prom 63 - BBC National Orchestra of Wales
Work:: Prom 63 (S6000)
Part of the BBC Proms.
Production:: BBC National Orchestra of Wales (T1537281571)
The BBC National Orchestra of Wales returns under its French-born Associate Guest Conductor, François-Xavier Roth, for an all-French first half, coupling Rameau's sparky, quintessentially Baroque opera suite with Canteloube's sumptuous arrangements of traditional folk songs. After the interval, visual art provides the link between the Paris-based Argentinian composer Martin Matalon's subtly shaded Lignes de fuite - named after a drawing technique - and the rarely heard, and typically flamboyant, arrangement of Musorgsky's musical picture gallery that Proms founder-conductor Henry Wood made a few years before the more familiar version by Ravel. Finish time: approx. 21:10 with interval
