Royal Albert Hall
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Symphony No 39 in E flat major
Felix Mendelssohn: Aria 'Infelice!'
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Aria 'Ah, lo previdi'
Felix Mendelssohn: Symphony No 4 in A major, 'Italian'
Rosa Feola, soprano
Le Cercle de l'Harmonie
conductor Jérémie Rhorer
Jérémie Rhorer's energetic period-instrument ensemble makes its Proms debut along with fast-rising soprano Rosa Feola. The orchestra opens with Mozart's vigorous Symphony No. 39, the first of the composer's final trilogy.
Just like Mozart, Mendelssohn had an uncanny way of balancing head and heart in complex musical arguments, as heard in the thrusting brilliance of his Fourth Symphony, the 'Italian', tinged with poetry and romance.
