| | PROM 57: Matthias Pintscher, Anton Bruckner, Frank Peter Zimmerman (violin) BBC Symphony Orchestra, Jukka-Pekka ... |
| | This was the UK premiere of ‘en sourdine’ – music for violin and orchestra (2002) - by the German composer Matthias Pintscher (born 1971) and dedicated to its Prom soloist, Frank Peter Zimmermann who gave the work its first performance in February of this year with the Berlin Philharmonic under Peter Eötvos. | | | In fact the soloist and orchestra produced ‘mutant’ sounds which came across as alien to the human ear, with the brass and percussion making dumb animal noises while the soloist’s sour sounds mutated away from the human: I have never before heard sounds like those produced by Zimmerman. | | | The soloist played with a hybrid technique, taking the sounds of his instrument beyond the known, beyond the human; there are no words to describe those abject voices that Zimmerman produced, and I am certain that they have never been heard before on the violin. |

| | The intention in that case was to generate the excitement of a live performance with the accuracy of a studio recording, something which would work well with the BBC’s conception of this project should they ever be inclined to release it on CD at a later date (all performances were recorded). | | | She soared magnificently above the orchestra, like a bird in flight, as the voice achieved a hitherto unmatched majesty which fully conveyed the sheer scale of this Isolde’s love for her Tristan. | | | His grasp of the score is little short of masterful and the BBC SO played magnificently for him, persuaded at every bar to reveal glowing string or woodwind detail often overlooked in live (and studio) performances of this work. |

| | Pierre Boulez: Rituel / Eclat / Multiples - Ensemble InterContemporain / BBC Symphony Orchestra |
| | The BBC Symphony Orchestra tackled this modern work in 1976 with the same enthusiasm they showed in their 1969 recording of "Pli Selon Pli." Opening with a keening oboe over a steady timpani rhythm, it is a static work which fascinates through its creative use of varied percussion and suspense. | | | Luigi Nono: Como una ola de fuerza y luz, for Soprano, Piano, Orchestra and Magnetic Tape (1971-72) /...sofferte onde serene... | | | Personally, I like to listen to Boulez to clear my palette after a heavy meal of Romantic music, but many may find him a little dry.... |
