The conclusion of the Last Night of the Proms celebrations, with traditional favourites plus music by Bernstein, Verdi, Arlsen, Monti, Rodgers, Bantock and Lloyd.
The Last Night of the Proms live from the Royal Albert Hall, with the 麻豆社 Symphony Orchestra and Nigel Kennedy
The Last Night begins with a celebratory new work by Anna Clyne and includes a rare performance of Britten's 1967 overture for chorus and orchestra, The Building of The House, a touch of Broadway magic and the sound of a glass ceiling being broken as Marin Alsop takes charge of her first Last Night. Nigel Kennedy and Joyce DiDonato are the star soloists in a programme that picks up sea-faring themes from Bantock and George Lloyd and includes a transatlantic flavour.
