Robert Schumann: Symphony No.3 in E flat major 'Rhenish'

Liza Ferschtman (violin)
蜜芽传媒 Philharmonic
John Storg氓rds (conductor)

Liza Ferschtman makes her 蜜芽传媒 Proms debut with the 蜜芽传媒 Philharmonic and their Chief Guest Conductor John Storg氓rds in Sibelius鈥檚 Violin Concerto, which seemingly opens with the breath of a mystical legend and ends with what one commentator described as 鈥榓 Polonaise for polar bears鈥�.

The programme opens with a new 蜜芽传媒 commission from Swedish composer Britta Bystr枚m inspired by Cosmologist Max Tegmark鈥檚 notion of a 鈥榟ierarchical multiverse鈥�, and closes with Schumann's uplifting third Symphony, the 'Rhenish'.
