Presented by Catherine Bott. ±«Óãtv Proms 2008: A Prom in which the Orchestre de Paris under Christoph Eschenbach perform Pintscher's Herodiade Fragmente and Mahler's Symphony No 1.

Presented by Catherine Bott.

Another chance to hear a Prom in which the Orchestre de Paris and conductor Christoph Eschenbach pair early Mahler with a major work by Matthias Pintscher, who is considered to be one of the most arresting compositional voices of our time. American soprano Marisol Montalvo sings Pintscher's Herodiade Fragments, based on texts by the French Symbolist poet Stephane Mallarme. Like Mahler before him, Pintscher pushes to the limits the relationship between the human voice and the huge orchestra at his disposal.
