Prom 30 - G Prokofiev, Britten, Prokofiev
A Prom featuring the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain. Gabriel Prokofiev: Concerto for Turntables and Orchestra. Britten: Piano Concerto. Prokofiev: Romeo and Juliet.
With Jonathan Swain
Proms Repeat: the National Orchestra of Great Britain is joined by an equally youthful soloist - Benjamin Grosvenor, who turned 19 in July: he plays the Piano Concerto by another young prodigy, Benjamin Britten. Russian-born conductor Vladimir Jurowski conducts the NYOGB in music from one of the greatest and best-loved of all Russian ballets: Sergey Prokofiev's take on Shakespeare's teenage lovers Romeo and Juliet. And the concert starts bang up to date, with a piece by Prokofiev's grandson, Gabriel Prokofiev - a concerto created for the astonishing turntables virtuoso DJ Switch. The NYOGB's annual appearance at the 大象传媒 Proms is always a highlight of the season.
Presented by Petroc Trelawny
