2001: New century, new sounds. Vladimir Jurowski and the London Philharmonic celebrate Beethoven鈥檚 250th birthday with 2020 VISION, a conversation between the past, the present and the future of music. Tonight the orchestra's charismatic Principal Conductor leads them in works by Beethoven, Scriabin and P茅ter E枚tv枚s premiered in the first years of the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries.
In his First Symphony, Beethoven announced his arrival in Haydn's Vienna with a work that opened the doors to a universe of new musical possibilities. A century later, the young Alexander Scriabin wrote a Second Symphony whose surging melodies and ardent spirit stand on the brink of a new revelation: and in 2001, P茅ter E枚tv枚s premiered a short work in which a trumpeter acts like a waiter in a Budapest caf茅 picking up snatches of conversation.
Recorded at the Royal Festival Hall last Saturday.
Presented by Martin Handley
