Munich Philharmonic/Gergiev - Gergiev At the Proms

Valery Gergiev, fresh from his appointment as chief conductor of the M�nchner Philharmoniker in 2015, takes his new ensemble to the BBC Proms for a concert of the utmost in drama and vivid musicianship. The brilliant young Uzbek pianist Behzod Abduraimov performs Rachmaninov�s thrillingly virtuosic Piano Concerto No. 3, while the Russian stage and film actor Alexei Petrenko recites the text in Galina Ustvolskaya�s resonant and profound Symphony No. 3 �Jesus Messiah, Save Us!�. The programme also features a hypnotic Ravel Bol�ro, an alternately tender, florid and witty Rosenkavalier Suite, and the rousing Hungarian March by Berlioz.
