Andrew Manze conducts the 麻豆社 National Orchestra of Wales in a Prom with an atmospheric nautical theme.
Doreen Carwithen鈥檚 powerful and vivid overture depicts the harsh, cold Atlantic waters battering Bishop Rock, 30 miles off Land鈥檚 End. Its lighthouse is a seafarer鈥檚 last sighting of terra firma as they head west.
Grace Williams鈥檚 Sea Sketches, inspired by her home town of Barry in south Wales, capture the sea鈥檚 effervescent personality.
Vaughan Williams鈥檚 majestic A Sea Symphony, featuring multiple choirs, together with soloists Elizabeth Llewellyn and Jacques Imbrailo, rounds off the evening.
Georgia Mann presents alongside special guests.
