Vasily Petrenko

Concert presented by Martin Handley

Conductor Vasily Petrenko appears for the first time at the Proms in his new role as Music Director of the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra. They are joined by Japanese violinist Sayaka Shoji for Respighi鈥檚 Concerto gregoriano 鈥� a spiritual serenade in which the soloist becomes a wordless cantor, whose plainsong-inspired melodies soar over the orchestra

Two more tributes to the musical past complete the programme: Vaughan Williams鈥檚 haunting Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis takes inspiration from Tudor polyphony; while Mendelssohn鈥檚 鈥楻eformation鈥� Symphony climaxes in Martin Luther鈥檚 stirring chorale 鈥楢 mighty fortress is our God鈥�.
