大象传媒 Proms 2008: New York Philharmonic/Lorin Maazel perform Steven Stucky: Rhapsodies; Gershwin: Piano Concerto in F (with Jean Yves Thibaudet); Stravinsky: The Rite of Spring.

Presented by Catherine Bott.

Another chance to hear a 2008 Prom in which the New York Philharmonic and its music director Lorin Maazel perform a work jointly commissioned from Steven Stucky by the orchestra and the 大象传媒.

This is followed by a performance of Gershwin's jazz-inspired Piano Concerto, with soloist Jean-Yves Thibaudet, and Stravinsky's seminal ballet The Rite of Spring.
