Beethoven Piano Concertos - T1512280042

One of today's leading Beethoven interpreters, Paul Lewis begins his cycle of all five piano concertos, partnered tonight by the orchestra and conductor with whom he recently recorded them. The First and Fourth concertos contrast Beethoven's early rhythmic drive with later introspective insight, while two overtures convey the drama of Goethe's heroic Egmont, killed for railing against political oppression, and of Prometheus's Creatures, formed with the help of fire from the gods. The BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chief Conductor Jiri Belohlavek revive the time-honoured tradition of Beethoven Nights at the Proms. Finish time: approx. 21:05Conductor Jiri Belohlavek. Company BBC Symphony Orchestra.

Orcestre Philharmonique de Radio France - T2045840255

A double opportunity to celebrate Olivier Messiaen’s instrument, the organ. Olivier Latry, who teaches at the Paris Conservatoire (as did Messiaen), presents two faces of the French organ tradition - solo Messiaen and Saint-Saëns’s much-loved ‘Organ’ Symphony, a work written for London. Between the two organ works comes Messiaen’s Et exspecto resurrectionem mortuorum, a magnificent memorial to the dead of two world wars, and a haunting exploration of instrumental colour. A leading interpreter of Messiaen’s music, tonight’s conductor took part in the first performance of Messiaen’s posthumously completed Concert à quatre (Prom 45), of which he is the dedicatee. Finish time approx. 21:45Performer Olivier Latry (organ 35 mins)). Conductor Myung-Whun Chung. Music Massiaen (24mins)). Music Messiaen (31mins)). Music Saint-Saens (36mins)).
