'Symphony No. 3 in E flat major, Eroica', Ludwig van Beethoven |
| Performance Notes | Harrison Birtwistles monumental Earth Dances returns to the Proms for the first time this century. This contemporary orchestral masterpiece boasts tectonic shifts that surge and fissure with inexorable, elemental force. Ryan Wigglesworth and the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra pair it with the mould-breaking orchestral pinnacle of another age. Grander than anything that came before, Beethovens Symphony No. 3, the Eroica, ushers in Romanticism, revolutionising both the form itself and expectations of what a symphony can and should be. |
