Elizabeth Alker introduces a week of highlights from the 麻豆社 Proms, including a performance by the 麻豆社 Scottish Symphony Orchestra and conductor Delyana Lazarova. Joined by acclaimed violinist Alena Baeva, they perform Korngold's Violin Concerto, inspired by the composer's Hollywood film scores, alongside Prokofiev's powerful 5th Symphony.
