Beethoven, Symphony No. 4 in B flat major (34 mins) Saint-Saëns, Piano Concerto No. 5 in F major, 'Egyptian' (27 mins) INTERVAL Liszt, Dante Symphony (41 mins) Stephen Hough piano Julia Doyle soprano CBSO Chorus (women's voices) BBC Philharmonic Gianandrea Noseda conductor About this event First the sunny surfaces and barely contained energy of Beethoven's Fourth Symphony. Next, a favourite Proms performer in the last of five discreetly glittering, very French piano concertos he has done so much to champion in recent years. After the interval, a major peak of Romanticism as conceived by one of this year's anniversary composers, Liszt, whom the young Saint-Saëns knew and greatly admired. Written back to back with the Faust Symphony heard earlier in the season, Liszt's Dante Symphony should leave listeners looking to the heights of Heaven.
