BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra
Thomas Dausgaard conductor
Tonights Prom marks the first instalment of all three of Stravinskys landmark ballets for the Ballet Russes company, all
performed this weekend by Scottish orchestras. In the vivid folk tale of a puppet springing to life, Stravinsky had the
starting point for his stylistic breakthrough, Petrushka, a ballet that would depict Russia with quick tempos, smells of
Russian food, sweat and glistening leather boots.
The first part of a new work from major talent Helen Grime (see also Prom 30) prefaces this concerts arrival in Russia
via all the despair, passion and determination of Tchaikovskys heart-rending Violin Concerto.

Highlights
How to ace an encore in 8 easy steps
Violinist Pekka Kuusisto's masterclass in how to delight a
Proms audience.

Proms Extra
5.15pm6.00pm Friday 5 August
