A Prom featuring the 大象传媒 SO under Thomas Dausgaard. Langgaard: Symphony No 11. Gudmundsen-Holmgreen: Incontri. Shostakovich: Cello concerto No 1. Tchaikovsky: Symphony No 6.

With Penny Gore.

Thomas Dausgaard conducts the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra in Tchaikovsky's 6th Symphony, contemporary Danish music and Shostakovich's 1st Cello Concerto with soloist Daniel Muller-Schott.

Thomas Dausgaard and the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra present a night of firsts. Making its UK premiere is maverick Rued Langgaard's tuba-rich 11th Symphony of 1945. There's also the UK premiere of octogenarian Pelle Gudmundsen-Holmgreen's Incontri. Daniel Muller-Schott makes his Proms debut as the soloist in Shostakovich's hyper-concentrated 1st Cello Concerto. And the Prom ends with Tchaikovsky's radical and deeply emotional 6th Symphony.

Presented by Petroc Trelawny.
