BBC Proms

Beethoven, Shostakovich & Rachmaninov (2018x12)

Date de diffusion: Juil 23, 2018

Conductor Karina Canellakis returns with the BBC Symphony Orchestra after her triumphant 2017 Proms debut. Two 20th-century Russian masterpieces lead the bill - the exhilarating Symphonic Dances by Rachmaninov and Shostakovich's much-loved First Cello Concerto, where Canellakis is joined by another young American star, soloist Alisa Weilerstein. The evening kicks off with Beethoven's forceful Overture Coriolan, which Canellakis describes as a 'punch in the face', and a third young American, composer Andrew Norman, completes the programme with the UK premiere of his new work Spiral.
