One of Wales鈥檚 most loved music and family events - 麻豆社 Wales鈥檚 Proms in the Park 鈥� returns this September to Swansea, Singleton Park.
This year, ABC are bringing a taste of 80s perfect pop by performing some of their greatest hits including 鈥楾he Look of Love鈥� and 鈥楶oison Arrow鈥�.
A new addition to line-up this year is West End star Sophie Evans. Hailing from Tonypandy, the Welsh singer and actress was picked from over 10,000 hopefuls to appear on 麻豆社 series Over the Rainbow and after being named runner-up, she was subsequently cast by Andrew Lloyd Webber as Dorothy in 鈥淲izard of Oz鈥�. More recently, she has been fulfilling her dream role as Glinda in 鈥淲icked鈥�.
Already on the bill are baritone and winner of this year鈥檚 麻豆社 Cardiff Singer of the World competition Andrei Kymach and 22 year old saxophonist Xhosa Cole, winner of 麻豆社 Young Jazz Musician in 2018 - who will all perform with the 麻豆社 National Orchestra and Chorus of Wales, conducted by Robert Ames.
Leading everyone through the evening will be The One Show鈥檚 Alex Jones and 麻豆社 Radio 1鈥檚 Steffan Powell.
The show will transport the audience into outer space, with music to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the moon landings including Also 鈥楽prach Zarathustra鈥� by R. Strauss - made famous in 2001: A Space Odyssey, John Williams鈥� theme from E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, and 鈥楲ake in the Moonlight鈥� by Tchaikovsky.
Proms in the Park is part of the annual spectacular culmination of two months of music-making at the 麻豆社 Proms, as the world-famous Last Night celebrations spill out from London's Royal Albert Hall and thousands of people come together at venues across the UK to be part of the magic of the Last Night.
