Zubin Mehta, conductor

Australian musicians play in most of the world’s leading orchestras, from the Berlin Philharmonic to our own BBC orchestras. The Australian World Orchestra gathers many of them together, back home in Australia, to create a classical supergroup unlike anything on earth: the result, says conductor Zubin Mehta, ‘is one of the top ten orchestras in the world’. But hearing is believing and tonight Mehta – a household name – conducts the AWO in its Proms debut, performing music that ranges from the multicoloured expressionism of Anton Webern, to the rolling, sunlit slopes of Brahms’s expansive Second Symphony. Plus jewel-like miniatures by Debussy, exquisitely reworked by another great Australian musical export, Brett Dean.
