Omnibus at the Proms

S39 • E5    Aug 16, 1985
The second of six visits to the Royal Albert Hall during the 91st season of Henry Wood

Promenade Concerts.

Introduced by Jane Glover Who is also making her first Prom appearance as the conductor of the London Mozart Players Jed by PAUL BARRITT

Tonight's programme deludes:

Schubert Symphony No 5, in B flat, written when the composer was only 19;

Samuel Barber Knoxville: Summer of 1915, solo soprano Yvonne Kenny a tender, nostalgic setting of a poem by JAMES AGEE about the thoughts of an American child on a summer evening; and Mozart Symphony No 34, In c (K 338) written in 1780 Which, says Jane Glover ,

'has one of the most brilliant and exuberant finales that he ever wrote'.
