About this event
A British first half pairs Elgar’s concert overture, inspired by a winter holiday on the Italian Riviera, with the Piano Concerto by Hugh Wood (80 this year), which sees him tapping into the live‑wire personality of tonight’s soloist, for whom it was written.

The all-French second half reflects new light on Debussy’s masterly orchestral seascape with two pinnacles of water-inspired piano music, transformed for the symphony orchestra.

 

Please note change of artist: We are sorry to announce that Thierry Fischer is unwell and therefore unable to conduct this concert. We are grateful to Ryan Wigglesworth for agreeing to conduct this Prom.
