Performance NotesThe Melbourne Symphony Orchestra makes its first visit to the Proms under Chief Conductor Jaime Marti´n, bringing two Romantic orchestral classics as well as a musical postcard from Down Under.

Dvorak swells simple, folk melodies into sweeping orchestral statements in his Symphony No. 6, inspired by his Bohemian homeland and landscape, while Australia’s ‘haunted hills’ are the starting point for Margaret Sutherland’s evocative symphonic portrait of her nation’s first Aboriginal inhabitants.

Former BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist Khatia Buniatishvili is the soloist in Tchaikovsky’s beloved Piano Concerto No. 1, with its passionate opening and the melting lilt of its slow movement.
