Haitink and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra
Murray Perahia joins Bernard Haitink and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra for a contrasting programme of Mozart and Shostakovich from the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Proms 2008.
In 2020, Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Radio 3 is bringing together musical greats, from the past and the present, in one extraordinary Proms season. Radio 3 is broadcasting the best of four decades of unmissable Proms concerts.
Murray Perahia and Bernard Haitink have a musical rapport that has given us countless magnificent performances. This performance from the Â鶹¹ÙÍøÊ×Ò³Èë¿Ú Proms in 2008 saw Perahia return to the Proms, following a gap of 20 years, to perform one of Mozart's greatest piano concertos.
It was while writing his Fourth Symphony that Shostakovich was denounced in a newspaper article entitled ‘Muddle Instead of Music’. He continued composing the work in private, but it had to wait 25 years – beyond the death of Stalin – before it was first heard in public, in 1961.
