Avril Coleridge-Taylor: A Sussex Landscape
DvoΕ™Γ‘k: Symphony No. 7 in D minor

Hot-property conductor Daniele Rustioni brings his Ulster Orchestra to London for a Prom concluding with Dvořák’s stirring Symphony No. 7, in which dark clouds and bright sunshine jostle for supremacy throughout a melody-fuelled, rhythm-buoyed journey that ends in triumph. Francesco Piemontesi joins the orchestra for the most poetic of Beethoven’s piano concertos, while there’s comedy from centenary composer Busoni and an English musical landscape by Avril Coleridge-Taylor that proves more dramatic than serene.
