Omer Meir Wellber (conductor)

Omer Meir Wellber makes his Proms debut as the ´óÏó´«Ã½ Philharmonic's Chief Conductor. South Korean pianist Yeol Eum Son joins them as soloist in Mozart's Piano Concerto No.15 (K450) with its intricate wind writing and lively hunting-horn finale. Schumann's mould-breaking Fourth Symphony, with its opening journey from darkness to blazing light, is paired with Schoenberg's revolutionary Five Orchestral Pieces and Paul Ben-Haim's 1940 Symphony No.1 - an emotive musical statement at a time of international conflict.
