[Ein Heldenleben]

Prom 9 BBC SSO Kindertotenlieder

Well if it’s just that it’s a huge missed opportunity..

ah looking at the Proms programme the “subs” are more than acceptable !

[Ein Heldenleben]

The many fans of Alim Beisembayev on the forum will need no encouragement to listen to this wonderful recital currently on R3 . A poet and a virtuoso. The daring rubato and wonderful touch in the E minor / Emajor etude is something of a miracle. Then the ultra virtuosic G#minor chromatic thirds etude - it seems beyond crediblity that a human can play like this. Only heard Pletnev play it better ….

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
Concert-Rondo in A major, K.386
Performer: Jean-Efflam Bavouzet. Orchestra: Manchester Camerata. Conductor: Gábor Takács‐Nagy.

J-E B’s playing is absolutely exquisite. With the two piano concerto to follow and the rarely performed 3 piano concerto to come it’s a veritable feast.

It's the BBC Singers' 100th birthday! They celebrate their centenary and look forward to the future...

No thanks to the powers that be - if they'd had their way we would have been having a Requiem Mass and a two minute silence today.
The programme for this evening's concert doesn't especially appeal, but I will listen - kind of how I've done over my lifetime really!

I don’t know what they put in the porridge North of the Border but , yet again, this BBC SSO performance of a Mahler symphony (No. 5 ) is shaping up to be a cracker. Wrigglesworth is really pushing the tempo variation - I love it.

I've long been an admirer of the BBC SSO, which I consider to be the best of Auntie's orchestras.

I was rather taken with the Helen Grime 'Folk' in the first half! Claire Booth terrific.
(Too soon for me to do Mahler 5 again, after Halle at the proms. I find I just have to ration out Mahler)

Typical, isn't it? You wait ages for a Mahler 5 to come along, and then ...

And now just after Rattle -Oramo in Mahler 6 - looking forward to catching up with the Gardner Rachmaninov concert after the Prom.
