With Penny Gore.

Another chance to hear the grand finale to Proms Bach Day. The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Andrew Litton play works by J S Bach in arrangements made in the last hundred years or so, ranging from the subtleties of Walton's "Wise Virgins" Suite and the playfulness of Grainger's version of "Sheep may safely graze", to the richly-scored reworkings by Stokowski, Henry Wood, Sargent, Bantock and Respighi. Plus two special commissions from young composers who have taken Bach pieces as a springboard for their compositions. Presented by Sara Mohr-Pietsch.

Bach, orch. Stokowski: Toccata and Fugue in D minor, BWV 565
Bach, orch. Henry Wood: 'Suite No. 6' - Prelude; Finale
Tarik O'Regan: Latent Manifest (大象传媒 commission: world premiere)
Walton: The Wise Virgins - suite
Grainger: Blithe Bells
Bach, arr. Sargent: Air from Orchestral Suite No. 3 in D major, BWV 1068

Bach, orch. Bantock: Wachet auf, ruft uns die Stimme, BWV 645
