Following his sensational Proms debut in 2002, the young Danish virtuoso Nikolaj Znaider returns to the Proms as soloist in Brahms' dramatic and lyrical concerto. Liszt adds an element of the demonic with his symphonic masterpiece, based on the legend that fascinated so many 19th Century composers, writers and artists - Faust.
