Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra & Anne-Sophie Mutter - T688400602

For the second of their two concerts, the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra preface Mahler's turbulent and heart-wrenching Fifth Symphony with lyrical music by one of the most distinguished and prolific of contemporary German composers. It has been 35 years since Anne-Sophie Mutter's breakthrough debut at the age of 13. Her willingness to champion the music of our own time has been one of the defining qualities of a violinist renowned for her flawless technique and impassioned playing style.

Royal Scottish National Orchestra - T1341830897

The Royal Scottish National Orchestra and its French-born Music Director, Stéphane Denève, join Paul Lewis as he rounds off his cycle of the five Beethoven piano concertos with the last and most proudly majestic of them all. Taking up this afternoon's Italian theme, they play spectacular orchestral showpieces by Berlioz and Respighi, inspired respectively by Rome's lively street life and its imperial past; while, cementing Celtic connections, they introduce a recent symphonic suite drawn from the Scottish composer James MacMillan's opera The Sacrifice, inspired by the medieval folk tales of The Mabinogion and premiered to great acclaim by Welsh National Opera in 2007. Finish time: approx. 21:10 with intervalConductor Stephane Deneve. Performer Paul Lewis (piano). Company Royal Scottish National Orchestra.

Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra - T01058139827

Continuing our bicentenary focus on Mendelssohn, Riccardo Chailly conducts the orchestra of which the composer himself was music director for the last 12 years of his life, in the concerto that he had completed in just three days, at the age of 22, in 1831. As soloist, we welcome back Saleem Abboud Ashkar, who made his Proms debut in 2003, playing Mozart's Concerto for three pianos with Shai Wosner (Prom 55), alongside Daniel Barenboim (Proms 48, 49 and 50). Begun in the shadows of a failing marriage and failing health, Mahler's Tenth Symphony was left unfinished at his death but triumphantly premiered at the 1964 Proms in a 'performing version' prepared by the English musicologist Deryck Cooke in collaboration with the late Berthold Goldschmidt, and later revised with the help of the composer-brothers Colin and David Matthews. Approx finish time: 21:45. Broadcast Live on BBC Radio 3. There will be an intervalPerformer Saleem Abboud Ashkar (piano). Company Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra. Conductor Riccardo Chailly.
