Chamber music from Edinburgh and great heights reached at the Proms

Chamber music from the Edinburgh International Festival and the Â鶹Éç Symphony Orchestra and Sakari Oramo performing Strauss’s Alpine Symphony at the Proms.

Elizabeth Alker introduces exclusive recordings made at some of this year’s summer music festivals. Award-winning French guitarist Raphael Feuillatre makes his Edinburgh International Festival debut with an exploration of Baroque music. It’s a particular interest of his. Today he plays his own arrangement of music by JS Bach, alongside works by Scarlatti, Francois Couperin and Jacques Duphly. Plus the Leonore Piano Trio play a work admired and performed by Johannes Brahms, Clara Schumann’s Piano Trio.

From this year’s Â鶹Éç Proms the Â鶹Éç Symphony Orchestra and Sakari Oramo present a programme which includes Richard Strauss’s epic musical depiction of a journey into the Alps - An Alpine Symphony - inspired by a climbing trip the composer made as a young teen.
