Prom 57: Maria João Pires and Bernard Haitink produce magic in Mozart

Conducted by honorary member Yannick Nézet-Séguin, the COE’s all-Brahms concert features the composer's First Symphony and final major work, the Double Concerto for Violin and Cello.

Iestyn Davies shows how to make every word count in a fairly standard sampler of Baroque arias; Ticciati is a fireball on the podium with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe.

Beethoven was the spiritus rector of Ticciati's COE concert at the Elbphilharmonie, with Lisa Batiashvili in commanding form for that composer's fiddle concerto.

Janine Jansen’s exquisite reading of Prokofiev's First Violin Concerto leaves the Belgian audience on a high.

Nézet-Séguin and the Chamber Orchestra of Europe bring to a triumphant end their Beethoven cycle in Baden-Baden with coruscating performances of the Second and Third Symphonies.

The elegance of the First Symphony served as a perfect curtain raiser for the mammoth, exultant Ninth.
