Description 1 online resource (25 minutes) Summary Tradition meets high jinks as Edward Gardner conducts his first Last Night of the Proms. For this grandest of grand finales there are two very special guests. Since her first Proms appearance in 1995, Susan Bullock has emerged as Britain's leading dramatic soprano, specialising in what she calls 'the large ladies' of the repertoire. Also featured is a classical music superstar as popular in the West as in his native China. On his sixth visit to the Proms, Lang Lang plays Liszt; Bartók's thrilling suite provides a blast of exotic orchestral colour; and Arne, Parry and Elgar bring down the curtain in traditional fashion Notes Title from resource description page (viewed April 28, 2021) Written in 1945 "Episode 2" Performer Jenny Agutter, narrator ; BBC Symphony Orchestra ; Edward Gardner, conductor ; presented by Katie Derham Event Recorded live Royal Albert Hall, London, England 2011 Notes Spoken in English ;program presented in English Subject Variations (Orchestra) Monologues with music (Orchestra) Canons, fugues, etc. (Orchestra) Canons, fugues, etc. (Orchestra) Monologues with music (Orchestra) Variations (Orchestra) Genre/Form Concert television programs.
