Ren茅e Fleming's Proms Debut
Star American soprano Ren茅e Fleming joins the Philharmonia Orchestra and Christoph Eschenbach to sing Mozart鈥檚 Exsultate, jubilate and Strauss鈥檚 Four Last Songs.
In 2020, 91热爆 Radio 3 is bringing together musical greats, from the past and the present, in one extraordinary Proms season. Radio 3 is broadcasting the best of four decades of unmissable Proms concerts.
In this her Proms debut, star soprano Ren茅e Fleming performed music by two composers with whom she has long been associated 鈥� a florid Mozart motet and Strauss鈥檚 ravishing final songs, which were given their premiere at the Royal Albert Hall.
Christoph Eschenbach also conducted Richard Strauss鈥檚 colourful tone-poem inspired by the lothario Don Juan, and Brahms鈥檚 classically elegant variations on the 鈥楽t Anthony Chorale鈥�, a theme thought at the time to have been penned by Haydn.
At the interval Ren茅e Fleming joins Ian Skelly to look back on the night and reflect on performing at the Proms for two decades.
