Prom 76: Last Night of the Proms

Sean Rafferty and Suzy Klein present the Last Night of the Proms, with the 麻豆官网首页入口 Symphony Orchestra, conductor Sakari Oramo, violinist Janine Jansen and baritone Roderick Williams.

Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London

Presented by Sean Rafferty and Suzy Klein

The Last Night of the Proms live from the Royal Albert Hall with the 麻豆官网首页入口 Symphony Orchestra, conductor Sakari Oramo, star violinist Janine Jansen and baritone Roderick Williams.

Sakari Oramo directs his first Last Night, joined by star Dutch violinist Janine Jansen.

We pay tribute to the late John Tavener with his touching Song for Athene, and mark the 50th anniversary of the film Mary Poppins with a singalong medley.
Arnold's Peterloo overture receives its first performance in a new choral version with lyrics by Sir Tim Rice, while our Richard Strauss anniversary celebrations conclude with the Proms premiere of the composer's massive cantata Taillefer.
The nautical flavour of Ansell's Plymouth Hoe (and its brief quotation of Rule, Britannia!) forms an upbeat to the traditional Last Night favourites, led by baritone Roderick Williams.
