Live from the Royal Albert Hall, Katie Derham introduces the final concert of the 2016 Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Proms.
The celebrations are led by the combined forces of the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Symphony Orchestra and Chorus and the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Singers, with Finnish chief conductor Sakari Oramo, who returns to conduct the Last Night of the Proms for the second time. Peruvian tenor Juan Diego Florez is the star soloist, bringing some sparkling arias from the operas of Rossini, Donizetti and Offenbach.
Also on the programme is the world premiere of a piece by young Scottish composer Tom Harrold, written for and performed by the Proms Youth Ensemble, along with players from the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Symphony Orchestra. We also hear Borodin's exuberant Polovtsian Dances, Britten's Matinées musicales, Butterworth's The Banks of Green Willow, and Jonathan Dove's Our revels now are ended, with baritone Duncan Rock.
