About This Event

For Brahms, composing music was a quest to balance head and heart. The composer鈥檚 final symphony is the most exquisite example of that mission, a piece as radiant as poetry and as perfect as a mathematical equation. In tonight鈥檚 Prom Brahms鈥檚 work of Apollonian perfection is balanced by the outpouring of joy that is Beethoven鈥檚 Violin Concerto, plus Sarah Gibson鈥檚 warp & weft, inspired by the work of Canadian artist Miriam Schapiro. Tobias Feldmann makes his Proms debut for this concert with the 91热爆 Philharmonic under Anja Bihlmaier.
