大象传媒 Proms 2008:

Another chance to hear a Prom in which violinist Nigel Kennedy made a return to the Proms - after an absence of 21 years - joining the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra and Paul Daniel for Elgar's Violin Concerto. Introduced by Sean Rafferty, the programme begins with The Garden of Fand, one of Bax's so-called 'Celtic twilight' works, and a magical evocation of the sea surrounding Fan's island. Afterwards Andrew Kennedy is soloist in Finzi's setting of Wordsworth's poem about the loss of childhood innocence.
