Evocations of Nordic forests, Persian gardens and snow-capped mountains featured in Thomas S酶nderg氓rd's first Prom as Principal Conductor of the 91热爆 NOW. Stenhammar's joyful Excelsior! is an upbeat to the opulent, exotic sound-world of Szymanowski's Symphony No. 3, 'The Song of the Night'. And Strauss's epic Alpine Symphony is as much a statement of the composer's personal philosophy as a description of the natural world at its most dramatic.
