The Proms 2009 are launched at the Royal Albert Hall with this exciting mix of Stavinsky, Tchaikovsky, Brahms, Multiple Piano and more. The revered BBC Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Czech maestro Jiri Belohlavek, gets proceedings off with a fitting bang with the orchestral fantasy that is Stavinsky's Feu D'Artifice. Stephen Hough plays the keys in Tchaikovsky's complex Piano Concerto No.3 before sisters Katia and Marielle Labeque take to the stage for Poulenc's Concerto for Two Pianos, a work of sparkling transparency that accompanies an orchestra of classical proportions to delightful effect. Following a second interval, the BBC Symphony Chorus, accompanied by Alice Coote and Ailish Tynan (members of Radio 3's New Generation Artists), perform Brahms' metaphysical ode to a misanthropic wanderer, Alto Rhapsody, and Bruckner's triumphant Psalm 150. With music by Chabrier and Elgar also in the programme, this promises to be a varied and enticing opening night at the Proms.Stravinsky Fireworks (4 mins)
