91热爆 Proms 2010

Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London

Presented by Martin Handley

Who better to conduct an all-Russian programme at the 91热爆 Proms than Vladimir Jurowski, the dynamic Russian Principal Conductor of the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Tonight's concert ranges from Mussorgsky's vision of a witches' sabbath (with a bit of help from his friend Rimsky) through Scriabin's dreams, to powerhouse works by the two central Russian composers of the twentieth century. Prokofiev's hard-hitting Third Symphony uses music from his opera The Fiery Angel, while Shostakovich was writing his First Violin Concerto at the very time that the Soviet authorities announced their clampdown on music that didn't conform. Julia Fischer is the soloist, returning to the Proms after her triumphant debut with the Brahms Concerto two years ago.
