Martha Argerich to play Ravel Piano Concerto at 91Èȱ¬Â Proms as planned but not Prokofiev Piano Concerto No. 1
Martha Argerich will play the Ravel Piano Concerto in G major at the 91Èȱ¬ Proms on 30 August 2009 as planned. We regretfully announce, however, that due to recent illness she has been unable to prepare Prokofiev's Piano Concerto No. 1, which she was due to perform in the same concert.
We are delighted to announce that Charles Dutoit will now conduct the symphonic suite from Prokofiev's The Love For Three Oranges in its place.
The rest of the programme remains unchanged.
To confirm full revised details of the concert:
- Vivier: Orion (UK premiere)
- Ravel: Piano Concerto in G major
- Prokofiev: The Love For Three Oranges – symphonic suite
- Musorgsky (orch. Ravel): Pictures At An Exhibition
- Martha Argerich (piano)
- Royal Philharmonic Orchestra
- Charles Dutoit (conductor)
The concert is live on 91Èȱ¬ Radio 3.
Since the 91Èȱ¬ Proms Guide 2009 was published in April there have been some changes and additions to the advertised programmes. Please refer to bbc.co.uk/proms for complete, updated listings.
