Orchestre de Paris at the Proms plus chamber music from the East Neuk Festival

Tom McKinney with a performance from pianist Hisako Kawamura at the East Neuk Festival plus a chance to hear Debussy, Stravinsky and Berlioz at the Proms.

Today鈥檚 Classical Live includes another chance to hear last Tuesday night鈥檚 Prom featuring pianist Jean-Baptiste Doulcet and the Orchestre de Paris conducted by Klaus Ma虉kela虉. The programme indulges all the beauty, delicacy and emotion of French music. Beginning with Debussy's dreamlike Pr茅lude 脿 l鈥檃pr猫s-midi d鈥檜n faune followed by another of the most thrilling scores ever to have come out of Paris: Stravinsky鈥檚 tuneful and mischievous puppet-show ballet, Petrushka. The concert closes with Berlioz鈥檚 Symphonie fantastique. Orchestre de Paris performed the work at its very first concert in 1967 and has done so at every significant milestone in its history ever since.

To start today鈥檚 Classical Live, there will be exclusively recorded performances from the recent East Neuk Festival from Fife in Scotland. Pianist Hisako Kawamura performs two fantasy-like sonatas by Beethoven and the quartet OPUS 13 perform a rarely heard piece by Grieg.
