BBC Radio 3 - Afternoon Concert, Proms 2011 Repeats, Prom 05

Music from the fifth concert of the 2011 Proms by Beethoven, Messiaen and Pascal Dusapin.

Penny Gore presents music from the fifth concert of the 2011 Proms, including works by Beethoven and Messiaen as well as a new BBC co-commission by Pascal Dusapin.

With Penny Gore.

A second chance to hear the Orchestre Philharmonique de Radio France with Myung-Whun Chung directing from the piano in Beethoven's Triple Concerto. He's joined by Gautier and Renaud Capuçon. There's also colourful music by Messiaen alongside an exciting new work for large orchestra by Pascal Dusapin.

Pascal Dusapin is one of the most exciting contemporary voices around, combining stylistic experimentation with emotional directness. Dusapin studied briefly with Olivier Messiaen, whose first orchestral work, Les offrandes oubliées, opens the concert. Rob Cowan presents.

Pascal Dusapin: Morning in Long Island - Concerto No. 1 for large orchestra (BBC co-commission with Radio France; UK Premiere)
