Broadcasts
Bernard Haitink returns to the great Amsterdam orchestra of which he was music director for nearly 25 years. It is fitting that he should be conducting Bruckner, since the orchestra was instrumental from the 1940s onwards in reviving worldwide interest in the symphonies of this composer.

Broadcasts
Pierre-Laurent Aimard takes the triple roles of pianist, conductor and pianist-director with the Mahler Chamber Orchestra (which also forms the nucleus of the Lucerne Festival Orchestra – see Prom 51). A selection of the brilliant Études from the late-lamented Ligeti's piano series takes its place among two works premiered in 1795: Haydn's Symphony No. 102, premiered at the King’s Theatre in London's Haymarket, and Beethoven's Piano Concerto No.2, with which the composer launched his career, in Vienna, as a pianist-composer.
There will be no interval.
