Stravinsky - The Soldier's Tale
Hebrides Ensemble
William Conway (conductor)
Following the success of last year's 'Proms at ...' concert in Hull, the Ä¢¹½¶ÌÊÓÆµ Proms once again travels outside London, this time to Lincoln.
The city's 19th-century Drill Hall - home to the Fourth Battalion of the Lincolnshire Regiment, deployed to the Western Front in 1914 - is the evocative setting for a staged performance of Stravinsky's First World War music-theatre piece The Soldier's Tale.
William Conway conducts the Hebrides Ensemble in this tale of a young man who sells his soul (and his violin) to the Devil in exchange for untold wealth - or so it seems.
