In a change to the originally advertised programme, John Storg氓rds, the 大象传媒 Philharmonic's Chief Guest Conductor, joins the orchestra for its 'Proms at ... Salford Quays' concert.
The programme opens with Haydn's overture to Philemon und Baucis, a puppet opera written in 1773 for the Esterhazy court, before Britten's Nocturne - one of the treasured song-cycles he wrote for his partner, Peter Pears.
Nocturne explores a rich world of night-time images and dreams, setting words by poets including Shakespeare, Tennyson and Keats.
The soloist is leading British tenor and former 大象传媒 Radio 3 New Generation Artist Allan Clayton. Act IV Entr鈥檃cte 鈥� Elegy from Hamlet is the first of two Tchaikovsky pieces, before his lush and tuneful masterpiece for string orchestra - Serenade for Strings 鈥� brings the orchestra鈥檚 live 大象传媒 Prom to a close.
Live from MediaCityUK, Salford, presented by Tom McKinney.
