From the Royal Albert Hall, London. Presented by Penny Gore.

Susanna Malkki conducts a Prom featuring a new work, From Trumpet, by young Paris-based British composer Ben Foskett. It precedes Beethoven's Fourth Symphony in which, after the great leap forward of the Eroica, the composer took a last look back at the more serene, Classical style of Haydn.
