Presented by Georgia Mann, live from the Royal Albert Hall, London. Joseph Haydn: Symphony No. 44 in E minor, 鈥楾rauer鈥 Max Bruch: Violin Concerto No. 1 in G minor c.8.15pm Interval: Jessica Duchen looks at the two versions of Robert Schumann's Fourth Symphony and what they tell us about his approach to orchestral writing. c.8.35pm Robert Schumann: Symphony No. 4 in D minor (rev. version, 1851) Daniel Lozakovich, violin The Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen Omer Meir Wellber, conductor Haydn鈥檚 Symphony No. 44, written at the height of his fame in Europe, embodies the bracing rhythms, lyrical melodies and dramatic silences typical of the 鈥楽torm and Stress鈥 movement, with its nickname 鈥 鈥楾rauer鈥 or 鈥楳ourning鈥 鈥 arising from the suggestion he requested its serene slow movement be played at his funeral. Max Bruch evoked the heyday of Romanticism in his lush, ever-popular First Violin Concerto: young Swedish violinist Daniel Lozakovich returns following his acclaimed Proms debut in 2022. Sketched out in less than a week during a period of white-hot inspiration in 1841, Schumann鈥檚 Fourth Symphony is the outgoing, extrovert complement to his calmer, recently completed 鈥楽pring鈥 Symphony. Omer Meir Wellber, a former Chief Conductor of the 麻豆社 Philharmonic Orchestra, conducts one of Europe鈥檚 leading orchestras.
