大象传媒 Proms 2009

Vassily Sinaisky conducts the 大象传媒 Philharmonic in some lesser-known works of the the English repertoire.

EJ Moeran's Symphony, introduced to the Proms in 1938 by Henry Wood, was written partly in Norfolk and partly in County Kerry, and seems to evoke the landscapes, seashores and folk idioms of both locations. Finzi's neo-Classical Grand Fantasia caps an unaccompanied and clearly Bach-inspired piano solo with a jaunty Toccata. This is followed by a performance of Elgar's Second Symphony, which was partly written on the Cornish coast at Tintagel.
