大象传媒

With Katie Derham

Sir Andrew Davis returns to the 大象传媒 Proms as Conductor Laureate of the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra with a typically wide-ranging programme of music whose pairings reflect musical homages. 'Mozart always smiled; his music also smiled,' said Messiaen of Mozart - which explains the title of his Mozart tribute Un sourire. That prefaces one of Mozart's most ebullient piano concertos, and the second half of the concert couples one of Brahms's greatest works with a tribute from one of his English admirers. Introduced by Martin Handley.

Mozart: Piano Concerto No. 17 in G major, K453
