BBC Proms: Dvořák and Mendelssohn
Royal Albert Hall, SW7 2AP , [Venue Details]‘Flawless’ violinist and Proms regular Alina Ibragimova is back with one of the great Romantic concertos.
It may have been seven years in the making, but there’s no sense of musical struggle in Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto – only sparkling, lyrical invention and a fleet-footed ‘fairy music’ finale.
Fairy tales are in the spotlight in Zimmermann’s evocative 1950 Fairy-Tale Suite, with its enchanted castle and propulsive forest ride. Bohemian folk dances and sunshine tug against a powerful undertow of melancholy in Dvořák’s passionate Symphony No. 7.
Programme
Zimmermann - Märchen-Suite (Fairy-Tale Suite) 19’
Mendelssohn - Violin Concerto in E minor 26’
Interval
Dvořák - Symphony No. 7 in D minor 35’
