The third and last of Lang Lang's concerts with the Philharmonia.
Having cultivated a reputation as the 'bad boy' of Russian music, Prokofiev's musical rehabilitation began with his radiantly melodic Third Concerto.
The pianistic tour-de-force appears almost restrained when set beside the apocalyptic eruptions of Scriabin's Poem of Ecstasy, a super-heated magnum opus generated by cataclysmic waves of sound.
