Beethoven: Violin Concerto in D major

c. 8.20pm
INTERVAL: Before Sarah Gibson鈥檚 鈥榳arp & weft鈥�, and after her untimely death last month at the age of 38, Georgia Mann talks to Leah Broad about Sarah鈥檚 work and the legacy of women composers.

c. 8.40pm
Sarah Gibson: warp and weft
Brahms: Symphony No. 4 in E minor

Tobias Feldmann (violin)
大象传媒 Philharmonic
Anja Bihlmaier (conductor)

For Brahms, composing music was a quest to balance head and heart. The composer鈥檚 final symphony is the most exquisite example of that mission, a piece as radiant as poetry and as perfect as a mathematical equation. In tonight鈥檚 Prom Brahms鈥檚 work of Apollonian perfection is balanced by the outpouring of joy that is Beethoven鈥檚 Violin Concerto, plus Sarah Gibson鈥檚 warp & weft, inspired by the work of Canadian artist Miriam Schapiro. Tobias Feldmann makes his Proms debut for this concert with the 大象传媒 Philharmonic under Anja Bihlmaier.
