Making a welcome return
following their three
appearances in 2009, Katia
and Marielle Labèque
perform a dramatic piece
designed to bring out their
contrasting personalities.
The Battlefield Concerto
was specially written for
them by French-Swiss
composer and double bass
player, Richard Dubugnon.
Semyon Bychkov, who conducted the work’s
recent Los Angeles premiere, here sandwiches it
between two classics – the most famous of all
unfinished symphonies and the glorious musical
autobiography (with battle scene) of a composer
who lived long in difficult times.

Plan

Prom 34: The BBC SO with Bychkov and the Labèques

Max Woods, 11th August

We can never really know why Schubert left his Eighth Symphony unfinished, but that shouldn't stop us from playing such a wonderful piece of music. With its deathly still opening, turbulent central section and gentle slow movement, this symphony is one of Schubert's finest and most frequently performed works.
