Prom 36: Vaughan Williams & Alwyn
18:30
Wed 13 Aug 2014
Royal Albert Hall
The dreamy pastoralism of Vaughan Williams鈥檚 The Lark Ascending contrasts with the jaunty vigour of the composer鈥檚 overture The Wasps in this all-English Prom. Job continues this season鈥檚 thread of great 20th-century ballet scores, while William Alwyn鈥檚 First Symphony adds to the evening鈥檚 nostalgia with the endless melody of its slow movement. Janine Jansen joins Sakari Oramo and the 麻豆社 Symphony Orchestra as soloist.
