A melody heard in a dream, a tribute to a dying genius, a vision of cosmic beauty: Bruckner’s Symphony No. 7 is the composer’s musical memorial to Richard Wagner. It’s a homage that elevated the Austrian composer to new heights, a musical walk around a magnificent cathedral. A contemporary tribute opens tonight’s Prom: Ryan Wigglesworth’s for Laura, after Bach, dedicated to the memory of former ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Scottish Symphony Orchestra Leader Laura Samuel and inspired by her recording of a Bach Partita, played at her funeral. Mozart’s stormy Piano Concerto No. 20 completes the programme, with Georgian pianist and former ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Radio 3 New Generation Artist Mariam Batsashvili as the soloist.
