Prom 9. Presented by Martin Handley

Two works by Sibelius begin this concert with Sir Mark Elder and the 贬补濒濒茅. Sc猫nes Historiques Suite No 2 reveals the composer's lighter side, opening with The Chase, in which horns are heard through the mist, followed by a wild chase, with impelling rhythms. The great Seventh Symphony has long been admired for its intensity and concision; its conclusion has been called "the grandest celebration of C major there ever was".

Bart贸k's last completed concerto was written in conditions of great poverty and adversity during the composer's exile in New York, but none of this is apparent from the work itself., which is generally melodic, mellow, even nostalgic in tone. It is championed here by Andr谩s Schiff, appearing at the Proms for the first time since his 2006 solo recital. And, to close, a joyous sequence of sonic snapshots: Jan谩cek's Sinfonietta is his typically bold evocation of a beloved city, the Moravian regional capital, Brno.
