Simon Rattle conducted the Freiburg Baroque Orchestra in a program featuring the works of Robert Schumann at the Proms. The performance included Schumann's Second Symphony, the overture to Genoveva, and the Violin Concerto performed by soloist Isabelle Faust. The Violin Concerto is described as a suppressed work that was previously locked away by the composer's executors for a century. Both reports highlight Rattle's affinity for period instruments. A center left perspective framed the evening as a successful challenge for Rattle, noting that he navigated difficult works and a challenging acoustic to deliver an exceptional performance.
