About This Event
Tonight鈥檚 celebration of the sun-scorched landscapes of Spain opens with Falla鈥檚 flamenco ballet El amor brujo, rich in Andalusian folk melodies and featuring the famous 鈥楻itual Fire Dance鈥�.
Joshua Bell is the soloist in Lalo鈥檚 Symphonie espagnole, whose title conceals a virtuosic violin concerto steeped in the sounds of Spain, while Cameron Carpenter takes to the organ console in Saint-Sa毛ns鈥檚 mighty 鈥極rgan鈥� Symphony. 鈥榃ith it I have given all I could,鈥� observed the composer. 鈥榃hat I did I could not achieve again.鈥�
Tickets for this concert are now very limited. However, in Prom 47 on Sunday 20 August, you can hear William Whitehead and Robert Quinney bring Bach鈥檚 Orgelb眉chlein to life alongside three brand-new chorale preludes by British composers.See below for more details.
