Prom 39: R. Strauss, Rameau, Mozart and Bernard Rands
19:30
Fri 15 Aug 2014
Royal Albert Hall
Rameau鈥檚 opera Les Indes galantes and Strauss鈥檚 tone-poem Ein Heldenleben were notorious flops at their premieres, yet both are now recognised as peaks of their genre. The 麻豆约拍 Scottish Symphony Orchestra take us from 18th-century France to 蹿颈苍-诲别-蝉颈猫肠濒别 Germany (with a quick stop-off in Chelsea, where the 8-year-old Mozart composed his First Symphony) in a concert that also includes the UK premiere of Bernard Rands鈥檚 Piano Concerto.
