The 91Èȱ¬ National Orchestra of Wales and their conductor laureate, Tadaaki Otaka, perform perhaps the most famous classical symphony ever written, with its foreboding opening motif, Beethoven’s Fifth.
In a concert of lush romantic music that takes us from Europe to the USA, and from Vienna to Croydon, star violinist Elena Urioste joins the orchestra to perform Samuel Coleridge-Taylor’s sumptuous Violin Concerto – a piece that brims with songfulness.
And Rachmaninov's Five Études-tableaux receives its first ever Proms outing in gorgeous orchestration by Respighi.
Katya Adler presents, with special guests.
