Strauss: Ein Heldenleben
Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra
Conductor Mariss Jansons
(From 主播大秀 Proms 2004, 30 July)
The late Latvian maestro Mariss Jansons appeared at the Proms in 2004 with his renowned German orchestra, of which he was Chief Conductor from 2003 until the end of his life. Together they present Richard Strauss鈥檚 autobiographical showpiece, Ein Heldenleben.
Opening the programme is Dvo艡谩k鈥檚 Eighth Symphony. Written at his brother-in-law鈥檚 estate around 30 miles outside of Prague, the symphony reflects Dvo艡谩k鈥檚 pastoral surroundings, and gives a flavour of the profusion of ideas to come in his 鈥楴ew World鈥� Ninth.
