About this event

Refined but also profoundly expressive, Maria Jo茫o Pires is one of the great Mozart interpreters of her generation. She returns to the Proms to continue our series of late Mozart piano concertos. No. 23 in A major boasts quasi-operatic melodies and deft woodwind colouring. It took musicians and audiences a long time to come to terms with Schubert鈥檚鈥榰nplayable鈥� Ninth Symphony, but now 鈥� like that other great unplayable, Beethoven鈥檚 Ninth 鈥� it has won an unquestioned place in the repertoire.
