10am
Rob's guest this week is the theatre and film director Dominic Dromgoole. Dominic was the Artistic Director of Shakespeare's Globe on London's Southbank for 10 years from 2006 to 2016. He grew up in a theatrical household; his mother was an actress, his father a director, and he'd formed his first theatre company by the age of 16. Dominic held positions at theatres in London and Oxford before taking the helm at Shakespeare's Globe where he built on the work of his predecessor, Mark Rylance, by emphasising his love of new writing and expanding the possibilities of the Globe; between 2014 and 2016 he took a production of Shakespeare's Hamlet to 197 countries. Despite Dominic's commitment to Shakespeare, he's renowned for nurturing contemporary talent; 65 new plays were premiered during his tenure at the Bush Theatre in London. As well as discussing his work as a director, Dominic shares his passion for classical music, choosing a selection of his favourite works.

Rob's Proms Artist of the Week is the Russian violinist Alina Ibragimova. Ibragimova is one of the world's leading violinists, excelling in a wide range of repertoire and as both a soloist and chamber player. Born in 1985, she studied at the Moscow Gnesin School before moving to the UK where she studied at the Yehudi Menuhin School and Royal College of Music. So far in her career, Ibragimova has performed with orchestras such as the London Symphony Orchestra, Cleveland Orchestra, Deutsche Kammerphilharmonie Bremen, Finnish Radio Symphony, Orchestra of the Age of Enlightenment, and with leading conductors including Valery Gergiev, Sir Mark Elder and Gianandrea Noseda. She's also worked as a soloist-director touring with groups such as the Britten Sinfonia, Academy of Ancient Music, and the Australian Chamber Orchestra. Ibragimova is also a member of the Chiaroscuro Quartet and has a regular recital partner in pianist C茅dric Tiberghien. This evening (6th September) she performs Prokofiev's First Violin Concerto at the 大象传媒 Proms with the London Philharmonic Orchestra and Vladimir Jurowski as part of a Russian-themed programme. Throughout the week Rob will be showcasing her wealth of recordings, from solo Bach, to Prokofiev's Second Sonata, Schubert's Fantasy in C major, D.934, and concertos by Karl Amadeus Hartmann and Mendelssohn.
