Last Night of the Proms

Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Proms 1992

The climax of the 1992 Proms season features a rare appearance from Dame Kiri Te Kanawa, and Russian pianist Tatyana Nikolaeva plays Shostakovich's sparkling Piano Concerto No 2.

Dame Kiri Te Kanawa makes a rare appearance at the Proms to sing two romantic arias by Massenet, and octogenarian Russian pianist Tatyana Nikolaeva, making her Proms debut, plays Shostakovich's sparkling Piano Concerto No 2.

The bicentenary of Rossini's birth is celebrated with the overture to his best-known opera, The Barber of Seville, and with Soirees musicales, a suite of some of his most beguiling music orchestrated by Benjamin Britten. Andrew Davis conducts the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Symphony Orchestra.
