Celebrate a great British tradition and embrace the spirit of this magical evening. Tradition met high jinks in 2010 as Ji Blohlvek conducted his second Last Night while the spirit of Henry Wood presided as always over the grand finale of the BBC Proms. Rene Fleming lends her lustrous soprano to music by Strauss Dvok and Smetana. A festive new piece by Jonathan Dove opens the evening; brilliant young viola player Maxim Rysanov gives Tchaikovsky's popular cello variations a new voice; a contemporary hornpipe forms an upbeat to anniversary composer Arne's Rule Britannia!... while traces of the season's Wood Parry Wagner Rodgers and Hammerstein and opera themes run throughout the concert.
