  • Date of change: 4 Jun 19 - T01154236082

Prom 72 - Symphonie Fantastique

Prom 72

Work:: Prom 72 (S6010)

Part of the BBC Proms.

Production:: Symphonie Fantastique (T01154236082)

A diabolical witches' sabbath, a riotous ball, a march to the gallows and an unrequited passion make up the hallucinatory narrative of Berlioz's Symphonie fantastique. Inspired by the composer's own romantic infatuation with a young actress, the score is a cinematic fantasy full of tragedy and passion, a work teeming with orchestral drama - by turns gorgeous and grotesque. Nicholas Collon and the Aurora Orchestra perform this grandiose work from memory, in a specially devised production incorporating elements of design, lighting and choreography, as well as Berlioz's own words about his music.
Performer Mathew Baynton (actor)
Company Blind Summit Theatre
Company Aurora Orchestra
Conductor Nicholas Collon
