Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London.
Brilliant American pianist Garrick Ohlsson returns to the Proms this year to play Bartok's exhilarating Third Piano Concerto. A curtain-raising suite of miniatures by Hungarian Erno Dohnanyi is performed by his country's leading orchestra, and Stravinsky's earthy riot-provoking ballet depicting pagan Russian rites completes the mix. Presented by Sarah Walker.
