The Russian National Orchestra returns to the Proms in this its 20th anniversary year, with conductor Andrey Boreyko. After a dramatic overture by Beethoven, depicting the heroic Roman general Coriolanus, the orchestra focuses on music from its homeland. Rachmaninov is a composer close to the heart of tonight's soloist, Nikolai Lugansky, who performs the radiant and inventive piano variations on Paganini's theme. Tchaikovsky's orchestral suite was initially conceived as a symphony, but he found this form to be more flexible; it ends with a set of flamboyant variations. Presented by Suzy Klein.
