BBC Proms: Edward Gardner Conducts the LPO
Royal Albert Hall, SW7 2AP , [Venue Details]Waves play and waterfalls plunge, the still surface of a lake reflects the midday sun and an ocean duets with the wind in a concert with saltwater on its breath.
Edward Gardner conducts the London Philharmonic Orchestra in a programme of 20th-century orchestral sound-pictures. The mercurial moods of Debussy’s La mer and rolling waters of Sibelius’s The Oceanides find answer in the gentle rolling harbour of Ravel’s song-cycle Shéhérazade, performed – in a Proms debut – by mezzo- soprano Aigul Akhmetshina.
Tippett’s last major work takes us inland to discover a glowing ‘lake full of song’.
Programme
Sibelius The Oceanides 11’
Tippett The Rose Lake 29’
Interval
Ravel Shéhérazade 17’
Debussy La mer 23’
