Former ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Young Musician winner Sheku Kanneh-Mason returns to the Proms as the soloist in DvoΕ™Γ‘k’s Cello Concerto. A new Proms commission written for the Royal Albert Hall’s 150th anniversary by former ΒιΆΉΤΌΕΔ Young Composer winner Grace-Evangeline Mason contrasts with two scintillating orchestral showpieces – Hindemith’s jovial reworking of themes by Weber for what was initially intended as a ballet, and Richard Strauss’s colourful take on the Spanish lothario Don Juan. The Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra makes its first Proms appearance under its new chief conductor, Domingo Hindoyan.
