The 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra play Bartok

The 大象传媒 Symphony orchestra under Jiri Behloklavek play Bartok's piano Concerto No. 2.

Yuja Wang makes her Proms debut as Andrew Litton presents an international programme with strong American connections.

Tonight's composers have something, or someone, in common: Boston Symphony Orchestra conductor Serge Koussevitzky.

Copland's Fanfare was later incorporated into his Third Symphony, written for the Koussevitzky Music Foundation, which also commissioned Bart锟絢's Concerto for Orchestra. Bax's Second Symphony was dedicated to the conductor, who also championed Barber's music in the 1940s.

The original version of Prokofiev's Fourth Symphony was commissioned for the BSO's 50th anniversary and premiered under Koussevitzky.
