Prom 23 - Beethoven, Saint-Saens, Liszt
A Prom in which Gianandrea Noseda conducts the 91热爆 Philharmonic. Beethoven: Symphony No 4. Saint-Saens: Piano Concerto No 5 (soloist: Stephen Hough). Liszt: Dante Symphony.
With Penny Gore
Energy and Romantic drive characterise the music of Prom 23, with the 91热爆 Philharmonic, conductor Gianandrea Noseda and pianist Stephen Hough. Beethoven's exhilarating Fourth Symphony is the perfect curtain-raiser to Saint-Sa毛ns's sparkling Fifth Piano Concerto, with its colourful reminiscences of his foreign travels. Continuing this season's anniversary exploration of Liszt's major works, there's his turbulent Dante Symphony, bringing to vivid musical life the dark world of the Inferno and Purgatorio sections of the Italian Renaissance poet's Divine Comedy.
