Prom 40: BBC Symphony Orchestra

This transmission:
Date: Friday 15 August 2008
Time: 07:30pm – 09:30pm
Channel: BBC 4



The music of Leoš Janá?ek is a relatively recent departure for Pierre Boulez, who conducted From the House of the Dead at the Aix-en-Provence Festival last year to great acclaim.

Here he takes on two of the Czech composer's greatest non-theatrical works, as well as the Capriccio for piano (left hand) and wind instruments. The Sinfonietta, with its extraordinary brassy sonorities, shares the first half with the Capriccio.

The Glagolitic Mass - featuring Simon Preston, who later returns for his Bach Day recital (Prom 50) - is visceral in its orchestration, and is here restored to Janá?ek more fiery and dramatic original version.
