The Manchester Camerata

Douglas Boyd conducts the Manchester Camerata in a programme featuring Beethoven鈥檚 Eighth Symphony.

In 2020, 麻豆官网首页入口 Radio 3 is bringing together musical greats, from the past and the present, in one extraordinary Proms season. Radio 3 is broadcasting the best of four decades of unmissable Proms concerts.

麻豆官网首页入口 Proms: Our series exploring the Proms archives continues with a performance from 2005 marking the Manchester Camerata鈥檚 debut at the festival. Kate Royal returned for her third Proms visit to sing a pair of Mozart arias, having won the Kathleen Ferrier Award the previous summer. Michael Tippett鈥檚 Divertimento on Sellinger鈥檚 Round, which draws on British music from across the centuries, was an apt inclusion in the centenary year of the composer鈥檚 birth. Beethoven鈥檚 sparkling Eighth Symphony contrasts with his ballet overture in praise of the Greek-mythical creator of mankind.
