BBC Proms 2106, Prom 40 - Beethoven, Coll, Adès, Prokofiev



Live at the BBC Proms: Thomas Adès conducts the Britten Sinfonia in his own music with cellist, Steven Isserlis and violinist, Augustin Hadelich in Beethoven, Francisco Coll and Prokofiev.



Beethoven: Symphony No 8 in F major

Francisco Coll: Four Iberian Miniatures

Thomas Adès: Lieux retrouvés (UK premiere of version with orchestra)

Prokofiev: Symphony No 1 in D major, Classical



Augustin Hadelich (violin)

Steven Isserlis (cello)

Britten Sinfonia

Thomas Adès (conductor)



Thomas Adès's Lieux retrouvés was inspired by the cello's 'haunting sense of time and place'. Here, Steven Isserlis performs it in its new cello-and-orchestra guise. Francisco Coll's piquant Iberian miniatures for violin and orchestra contrast with 'Classical' symphonies by Prokofiev and Beethoven.
