Proms at Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hoddinott Hall, Cardiff

The Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ National Orchestra of Wales comes together for the first time since lockdown to play in a socially distanced concert where the audience is watching at home.

Ryan Bancroft joins Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ NOW as principal conductor at Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Hoddinott Hall in Cardiff Bay for his first official engagement, his Proms debut and the first Prom from Wales! Martinu’s quirky Jazz Suite complements John Adams’s Chamber Symphony, written in 1992. After the world premiere of a new Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ commission by British composer Gavin Higgins, there are two evocative American classics by Barber and Copland. Acclaimed soprano Natalya Romaniw from Swansea, who represented Wales in Cardiff Singer of the World, joins the orchestra for this unforgettable Prom.
