The first-ever 大象传媒 Proms Dubai sees the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra, the in-house band of the summer season at the Royal Albert Hall, London, on its first tour to the United Arab Emirates. In a classic Proms mix of traditional repertoire and the new they pair up with two Proms favourites, conductor Edward Gardner and pianist Benjamin Grosvenor. To the desert city's brand-new Opera House they bring Elgar's portrait of his friends in the Enigma Variations, Mendelssohn's concert overture Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage, and Mozart's operatic Piano Concerto in D minor. At the very top of the evening comes the world premiere of Dubai-based British composer Joanna Marsh's Flare.
