This is going to be wonderful. What a pity I won't be there. What an even greater pity it's NOT on TV.
Fauré, orch. Rabaud
Dolly (suite) 17’
Mozart
Concerto in E flat major for two pianos, K365 25’
interval
Anna Meredith
new work c10’
BBC commission: world premiere
Lutoslawski
Variations on a theme by Paganini 6’
Saint-Saëns
The Carnival of the Animals 23’
Katia and Marielle Labèque pianos
Philip Moore and Simon Crawford-Phillips pianos
Lidija and Sanja Bizjak pianos
Britten Sinfonia
Ludovic Morlot conductor
We open our day of music for two or more pianos with Fauré’s delightful Dolly suite, originally written for two players at one keyboard. Mozart’s double concerto is full of playful intimacy, while Saint-Saëns’s playful zoological suite contrasts with Lutoslawski’s virtuosic reworking of a famous Paganini Caprice.
There’s also a new work for two pianos by Anna Meredith, whose nation-hopping froms introduced her to Proms audiences last year.
