BBC Proms: Temporada 2016, Episódio 18

2016 - 18: Sao Paulo Symphony Orchestra

The Proms festival celebrates the Rio 2016 Olympics with a visit from Brazil's Sao Paulo Symphony Orchestra, conducted by their musical director Marin Alsop. The concert gets off the mark with the UK premiere of Marlos Nobre's Kabbalah, followed by Grieg's Piano Concerto, with soloist Gabriela Montero. A movement from Villa-Lobos's Bachianas brasileiras lends a latin flavour to proceedings, before Rachmaninov's Symphonic Dances brings them to a close.
