Prom 1: First Night of the Proms

The festival opens with Elgar’s biblical oratorio The Kingdom – the beautiful ‘slow movement’ of a planned musical triptych. Celebrated Elgarian Sir Andrew Davis conducts the massed forces of the 91Èȱ¬ Symphony Orchestra and Chorus and the 91Èȱ¬ National Chorus of Wales. They are joined by a distinguished cast of soloists including Proms regulars Christopher Purves and Catherine Wyn-Rogers.

Please note there will be no interval.
