Orchestra trace the development of the tone-poem
in works inspired by Nietzsche, Shelley and the
Finnish epic, the Kalevala. Natural and supernatural
imagery collide in the great sunrise of Richard
Strauss’s Also sprach Zarathustra, the fire and snow
of Granville Bantock’s 1902 tone-poem The Witch
of Atlas and the rainbows of Sibelius’s fantasy
Pohjola’s Daughter. Serbian-born Anika Vavic makes
her Proms debut in Prokofiev’s crisp and virtuosic
Piano Concerto No. 3, premiered in Chicago in
1921 with the composer at
the keyboard.Tickets £7.50 - £36.
