Sir Andrew Davis (conductor)
Sir Andrew Davis, the much-loved former Chief Conductor of the 大象传媒 Symphony Orchestra and a veteran steersman of the Last Night, returns to direct the greatest annual party in classical music. The popular nautical theme of traditional favourites by Henry Wood and Thomas Arne is extended in Stanford鈥檚 Songs of the Sea, featuring star Canadian baritone Gerald Finley.
Another British choral classic, Blest Pair of Sirens 鈥� honouring the 鈥榟armonious sisters, Voice and Verse鈥� 鈥� joins Jerusalem in the centenary year of Hubert Parry鈥檚 death.
There鈥檚 a dash of Broadway in the touching 鈥楽oliloquy鈥� from Rodgers and Hammerstein鈥檚 Carousel, in which the wife-battering Billy finds new eloquence while vowing to change his ways, and a more mischievous streak in Milhaud鈥檚 delightful suite Scaramouche.
Roxanna Panufnik鈥檚 new commission, Songs of Darkness, Dreams of Light, rounds off a series of over 40 world, UK or London premieres this season, continuing the forward-looking vision of Proms founder-conductor Henry Wood.
