Beethoven’s only full-length ballet, The Creatures of Prometheus, is set to a story on a theme close to its composer’s heart — the civilising power of art. The titular creatures whom Prometheus brings to life represent humanity itself, and Beethoven responded to the story of their enlightenment with engaging, sunny music.
Daniel Muller-Schott, one of the world’s outstanding cellists, plays Schumann’s introspective, contemplative concerto. To open, Giordano Bellincampi conducts Schubert’s genial overture.
