Production Changes

Previous details associated with this item and date of change.

Date of change: 13 Jun 18 - T493260108

Prom 51 - Strauss, Wagner & Per Norgard

Work:: Prom 51 (S5982)

Part of the BBC Proms.

Production:: Strauss, Wagner & Per Norgard (T493260108)

Premiered in 1976, Per Norgard's Third Symphony is one of the great contemporary symphonies - a Danish classic that has never before been performed in the UK. Suffused with glowing microtones and thick, textural beauty, the eclectic score draws on everything from plainchant to Latin-American rhythms to spin its extraordinary narrative. Thomas Dausgaard and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra preface it with two works of equal sonic breadth: Wagner's exquisite musical meditation, the Prelude to Act 1 of Parsifal, and the autumnal warmth of Strauss's Four Last Songs, sung by Swedish soprano Malin Bystrom.

Performer	Malin Bystrom (soprano)
