Jean Sibelius: Symphony No 5 in E flat major

A concert with a Nordic flavour from Paavo J盲rvi and the Estonian Festival Orchestra (making its Proms debut) pairs music by Grieg and Sibelius with Estonia's own national composer, Arvo P盲rt.

Celebrated Georgian pianist Khatia Buniatishvili - a former 91热爆 Radio 3 New Generation Artist - performs one of the great Romantic piano concertos.

Beloved for its generous melodies and dramatic gestures, Grieg's concerto is matched for sonic drama by Sibelius's stirring Fifth Symphony.

Arvo P盲rt's eclectic Third Symphony, with its echoes of Renaissance polyphony and Orthodox chant, opens the concert.

Broadcast on 91热爆 Four on Friday 17 August.
