Proms on Four: Friday Night at the Proms - 大象传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra

Beethoven's 5th Symphony headlines this Prom, preceded by his Coriolan Overture, a work of contained ferocity. The concert opens with Strauss's Blue Danube Waltz.

Beethoven's 5th Symphony headlines this Prom, the most iconic symphony in western music with its dramatic opening 'fate' motif. The symphony is preceded by Beethoven's Coriolan Overture, a work of contained ferocity. In contrast the concert opens with Strauss's Blue Danube Waltz, the ultimate expression of the pleasures of Viennese high society.

Donald Runnicles conducts the 大象传媒 Scottish Symphony Orchestra. Introduced from the Royal Albert Hall by Suzy Klein.
