Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London.
Martha Argerich (piano) European Community Youth Orchestra conductor Mstislav Rostropovich.

The eminent pianist Martha Argerich returns to the Proms after a long absence to play Prokofiev's Third Piano Concerto. Then, after the interval, the European Community Youth Orchestra performs under the baton of the revered artist Mstislav Rostropovich. Formed in 1976, the orchestra draws its membership from EC players aged between 14 and 23. Last year it was awarded two major international prizes for its contribution to the development of European harmony. This evening's performance is of Shostakovich's Eleventh Symphony, a telling reminder of the horrors of repression, inspired by the notorious events of 'Bloody Sunday' 1905, when imperial troops massacred a peaceful demonstration of workers and their families.
