Prom 76: Last Night of the Proms

Sakari Oramo directs his first Last Night of the Proms, joined by powerhouse Dutch violinist Janine Jansen. British patriotism and Strauss鈥檚 anniversary celebrations combine for the first Proms performance of the composer鈥檚 extraordinary cantata Taillefer. Ansell鈥檚 romp of a nautical overture, Plymouth Hoe, and Ravel鈥檚 gypsy-dance Tzigane add colourful contributions to this musical celebration that culminates, as always, with a mass singalong.
