Gleich zwei Debütanten stehen beim filmmusikalischen Programm auf der Bühne: Dirigent John Wilson und Pianist Louis Schwizgebel.

An unusual but inspired programme of Riisager, Gershwin and Korngold finds a very receptive audience in Singapore. 

On the orchestra's first US tour since Kirill Petrenko took over as Chief Conductor, their Carnegie Hall program includes a work by American composer Andrew Norman, an early Mozart concerto and Korngold’s sole symphony.

Franz Welser-Möst delivered a first-rate account of the Symphony in F sharp major, which was panned at its premiere but has seen a recent spike in popularity.

Spanning almost a century in musical terms, from the old-world elegance of Johann Strauss to one of his greatest admirers, Erich Korngold, John Wilson and the Sinfonia of London demonstrate orchestral excellence.

Leon Botstein and the American Symphony Orchestra's attempt to position Erich Wolfgang Korngold as a midcentury musical force comes up short.

The BBC Symphony Orchestra brought together the music of two very different composers forced into American exile by the Third Reich.

Prom 31 seems to have been loosely based around a royal theme, with two of several nods at this year’s Proms to the Coronation anniversary: explicitly, in the case of William Walton’s Orb and Sceptre march, which he wrote for the 1953 ceremony, and obliquely by way of Edmund Rubbra’s Ode to the Queen, which the BBC commissioned for the Coronation celebrations.
