About this event

Former 麻豆社 Radio 3 New Generation Artist Igor Levit made his Proms debut at a Cadogan Hall chamber music recital in 2012. Now he makes his Proms concerto debut in Mozart鈥檚 poignantly delicate No. 27, completing this year鈥檚 series of late great Mozart piano concertos. Delicacy gives way to orchestral weight and heft in Bruckner鈥檚 popular Seventh Symphony, its beautiful Adagio a tribute to Wagner, and a finale that, according to composer Robert Simpson, 鈥榖lends solemnity and humour in festive grandeur鈥�.
