Afternoon on 3 - Proms 2010 Repeats - Prom 58

With Katie Derham Sir John Eliot Gardiner and the visiting Czech Philharmonic Orchestra frame their programme with Dvorak's ebullient, life-affirming Carnival Overture and his radiant 8th Symphony. In between, Martinu's 6th Symphony dances with Czech and Moravian folk melodies and rhythms; there's a detour to the Norwegian fjords for Grieg's Piano Concerto with Lars Vogt; and back to the Moravian Janacek whose gentle Ballad of Blanik was inspired by Czech independence and the new nation's legendary guardians. Presented by Petroc Trelawny. Dvorák: Overture, 'Carnival' Martinu: Fantaisies symphoniques (Symphony No. 6) Grieg: Piano Concerto in A minor Janácek: The Ballad of Blaník Dvorák: Symphony No. 8 in G major Lars Vogt, piano Czech Philhamonic Orchestra Sir John Eliot Gardiner, conductor Followed by highlights from last year's City of London Festival including: Maxwell Davies: 3 Sanday Places Shai Wosner, piano.
