Part of the BBC Proms. Two key figures of Austria's flourishing early-20th-century opera scene open tonight's Prom. Pronounced a genius by Mahler at the age of 9, Erich Korngold showed a prodigious gift for melody that later bore fruit in his Hollywood film scores, which he happily plundered for his Violin Concerto. The 'Nocturne' of Schreker's operatic dream sequence - portraying the sleepless night of the opera's composer-hero Fritz - finds a counterpart in the two 'Night Music' movements of Mahler's Symphony No. 7. Ingo Metzmacher returns to the Proms after conducting Messiaen's epic opera Saint Francis of Assisi in 2008 to great critical acclaim. Finish time: approx. 22:10
