Javier Perianes piano

Anja Bihlmaier conductor

The princess Salome knows her own powers, and strikes a terrible bargain. Cleopatra rules like a goddess, and dies like a queen. And in ancient Greece, Elektra nurtures a murderous obsession – until, to some of the most shatteringly violent music ever composed, she witnesses heaven and earth rain vengeance upon her tormentors. Tonight, under guest conductor Anja Bihlmaier, the BBC SSO encounters incredible women – and none more remarkable than the pioneering 19th century French composer Mélanie Bonis. It’s a gripping contrast to Mozart at his most graceful, as Javier Perianes brings all his charisma and imagination to a concerto that Mozart once played himself. Music simply doesn’t get any wittier - or more lovely.
