Radio 3 in Concert: The BBC Proms Japan 2022: Prom 3

The BBC Symphony Orchestra in Tokyo, conducted by Dalia Stasevska, premieres music by Noriko Koide, plus Sibelius's Symphony No 1 and Grieg's Piano Concerto with Yu Kosuge. Concert 3 from the BBC proms Japan 2022 contrasts the drama of Grieg's Piano Concerto with the at times unsettling world of Sibelius's Symphony No 1. And there's a chance to sample the music of Noriko Koide's in her new piece, Swaddling Silk and Gossamer Rain, where borders and borderlines are seen as a metaphor for human interactions.
