Viktoria Mullova & Matthew Barley - T01837817937

Join Viktoria Mullova, Matthew Barley and friends in a colourful Late Night entertainment of contrasted styles and unexpected player combinations. The worlds of the Gypsy and of jazz are represented alongside a Hungarian classic but the programme is also making a statement about Viktoria herself, says Matthew - 'how she relates to the world, and more importantly to the music she loves and plays. She loves simplicity, and emotional directness and power, as well as virtuosity that comes from the heart and for the heart (as opposed to showing off).' The pair hope that 'this binding factor will prove more important than any definition of genre. Music is music.' There will be no interval. Finish time: approx. 23:30Performer Viktoria Mullova (violin). Performer Matthew Barley (cello). Performer Julian Joseph (piano). Performer Paul Clarvis (percussion). Performer Sam Walton (percussion).

T01942350514 (PROM10)

The Philharmonia and its Principal Conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen are joined by one of today's leading French pianists in Ravel's fiendish test of the left hand, stretching ears as much as fingers in a racy, sometimes macabre mix of styles from Romantic to jazz. In the climax to our 75th-birthday celebrations for Estonian Arvo Pärt, Salonen conducts the composer's first symphony for over 35 years, having given the world premiere last year with the Los Angeles Philharmonic. Mosolov's clangorous outburst of 1920s industrial optimism, unheard at the Proms for 70 years, is complemented by Scriabin's breathtakingly prolonged crescendo of mystical sensuality. Finish time: approx. 21:00Conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen. Performer Philharmonic Orchestra. Performer Jean-Efflam Bavouzet (piano).

BBC Symphony Orchestra - T1743019555

Renowned Shostakovich interpreter Semyon Bychkov conducts the composer's astonishingly powerful and strikingly cinematic 1957 symphony, which on the surface commemorates the failed anti-Tsarist uprising of 1905, but deep down rages at the Soviet authorities. Detlev Glanert's new piece is a foretaste of his forthcoming opera, Das Holzschiff ('The Wooden Ship'). Winner of the 1998 Moscow Tchaikovsky Competition, and recently acclaimed by Gramophone as 'a virtuoso in the grandest of Russian traditions', Denis Matsuev makes his Proms debut in Rachmaninov's devilishly demanding set of variations on Paganini's most famous Caprice. Approx finish time: 22:00. Live on BBC Radio 3.Performer Denis Matsuev. Company BBC Symphony Orchestra. Conductor Semyon Bychkov.
