Omer Meir Wellber makes his Proms debut as the ±«Óãtv Philharmonic’s newly appointed Chief Conductor Designate.

South Korean pianist Yeol Eum Son joins them as soloist in Mozart’s Piano Concerto No. 15 in B flat major – with its intricate wind writing and lively hunting-horn finale.

Schumann’s mould-breaking Fourth Symphony, with its opening journey from darkness to blazing light, is paired with Schoenberg’s revolutionary Five Orchestral Pieces and Paul Ben-Haim’s 1940 Symphony No. 1 – an emotive musical statement at a time of international conflict.

Approx. end time: 21:50

Broadcast on ±«Óãtv Four on Friday 26 July
