Award-winning Icelandic pianist V铆kingur 脫lafsson makes his much-anticipated Proms debut, as soloist in both Bach鈥檚 Keyboard Concerto in F minor, whose energised outer movements frame a ravishing central Adagio, and Mozart鈥檚 pioneering Piano Concerto K491, a rare minor-key work whose stormy, richly orchestrated music climaxes in a relentless dance. The Philharmonia Orchestra and Estonian conductor Paavo J盲rvi frame the concert with two symphonies: Prokofiev鈥檚 playful 鈥楥lassical鈥� Symphony, with its clever juxtaposition of traditional forms and contemporary colours, and the more loaded irony of Shostakovich鈥檚 compact Symphony No. 9.
