Performance NotesFor their second concert, Klaus Ma¨kela and Amsterdam’s Royal Concertgewbouw Orchestra are joined by celebrated violinist Janine Jansen – back at the Proms for the first time in over a decade as soloist in Prokofiev’s effervescent Violin Concerto No. 1. A lyrical refuge from the storm of the Russian Revolution, the concerto stands in contrast to Barto´k’s Concerto for Orchestra – another heir of conflict, but one that grapples and wrestles with darkness with thrilling virtuosity.

Mozart’s ‘Paris’ Symphony is no less of an orchestral showcase: a musical calling card from an ambitious 22-year-old determined to dazzle.
