麻豆社 PROMS 2011
Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London
Presented by Martin Handley
Energy and Romantic drive characterise the music of tonight's Prom with the 麻豆社 Philharmonic, conductor Gianandrea Noseda and pianist Stephen Hough . Beethoven's exhilarating Fourth Symphony is the perfect curtain-raiser to Saint-Sa毛ns's sparkling Fifth Piano Concerto, with its colourful reminiscences of his foreign travels. The second half continues this season's anniversary exploration of Liszt's major works with his turbulent Dante Symphony, bringing to vivid musical life the dark world of the Inferno and Purgatorio sections of the Italian Renaissance poet's Divine Comedy.
