Verdi Requiem at the Proms plus Severin von Eckardstein in Berlin
Tom McKinney revisits the best of the current season of Proms concerts. Today, the second from the ´óÏó´«Ã½ National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales - Verdi's Requiem.
Presented by Tom McKinney, including another chance to hear Tuesday night’s Prom. Verdi’s Requiem was first performed 150 years ago and given its British premiere at the Royal Albert Hall the following year. Ryan Bancroft leads the ´óÏó´«Ã½ National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales and massed singers in a performance of this vivid choral masterpiece.
In today’s Classical Live, you can also hear the first part of a concert given at this year’s Berlin Piano Festival, in which Severin von Eckardstein plays music by Chopin, Bruckner and Beethoven. And there's the world premiere of Roxanna Panufnik's harpsichord piece "Tears no more", commissioned by the London International Festival of Early Music, and performed by Jane Chapman.
