About this event

Vladimir Jurowski and the London Philharmonic Orchestra trace the development of the tone-poem in works inspired by Nietzsche, Shelley and the Finnish epic, the Kalevala.

Natural and supernatural imagery collide in the great sunrise of Richard Strauss鈥檚 Also sprach Zarathustra, the fire and snow of Granville Bantock鈥檚 1902 tone-poem The Witch of Atlas and the rainbows of Sibelius鈥檚 fantasy Pohjola鈥檚 Daughter. Serbian-born Anika Vavic makes her Proms debut in Prokofiev鈥檚 crisp and virtuosic Piano Concerto No. 3, premiered in Chicago in 1921 with the composer at the keyboard.

Watch and listen to more piano concertos at the Proms.
