Shakespeare Summer Proms
LAST NIGHT OF THE PROMS
Stratford-upon-Avon -This Friday - 3 July
This Friday evening is the final concert of our Shakespeare Summer Proms festival and, by popular demand, will feature such favourites as Elgar’s Enigma Variations and Pomp & Circumstance marches, Parry’s Jerusalem and Henry Wood’s Sea Songs.
David Curtis will be back on the podium to conduct this fun evening, which is guaranteed to get your feet tapping and Union Flags (Jacks) waving.
But the real jewel in the crown is the chance to listen to the world premiere of Arnold Bax’s Piano Concertino, featuring the international renowned pianist Mark Bebbington, which was recorded by Orchestra of the Swan in April and has already attracted much national media interest.
The lost piece was originally composed in 1939 for Harriet Cohen and this Friday it will finally get its first public airing.
David said: “The concert will have all the ingredients of a good Last Night of the Proms celebration, but we have decided to give our audience an extra treat by performing bax’s piano concertino."It’s a bit like a 21st Century Schubert’s unfinished and the romantic mystery surrounding it should make it very appealing listening.”
We look forward to seeing you at our Last Night of the Proms
