Prom 66 - Berliner Philharmoniker
Work:: Prom 66 (S0203084924)
Part of the BBC Proms.
Production:: Berliner Philharmoniker (T605470237)
In the first half of their second Prom, Sir Simon Rattle and the Berlin Philharmonic pair late works by two of Germany's greatest late-Romantics - 'Richard the First' and 'Richard the Third', as the conductor Hans von Bülow rather wickedly called them (quipping that, after Wagner, there could be no 'Richard the Second'). After the interval come the sensational sonic adventures by the three great musical pioneers of early-20th-century Vienna. Celebrated Finnish soprano Karita Mattila returns to the Proms as soloist in Strauss's opulently nostalgic reflections on life's last days. Finish time: approx. 21:40
