BBC Proms
Last Night of the Proms
S47 • E9 Sep 11, 1993
Always a very British affair, the traditional final concert of this year's BBC Proms returns to an all-British programme. This first half opens with Holst's ballet music from A Perfect Fool, followed by Arnold's
Clarinet Concerto No 2 (the soloist is Michael Collins ).
After shorter pieces by Delius and Lord Berners, part 1 ends with Lambert's Rio Grande, which brings together mezzosoprano Delia Jones , pianist
Kathryn Stott , the BBC Singers and BBC Symphony Chorus. Barry Wordsworth conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra, and the concert is introduced from the Royal Albert Hall by Richard Baker.
