The World's Greatest Classical Music Festival. The BBC Proms is a classical music festival held every summer at the Royal Albert Hall in London, and in recent years has explored an innovative series of Proms around the UK with concerts in all four nations. Its aim: to bring the best in classical music to the widest possible audience, which remains true to founder-conductor Henry Wood’s original vision in 1895. Whether you are a classical connoisseur or think classical music isn’t for you, there is something for everyone in the eight-week stretch of concerts.
Stravinsky: Le Rossignol (The Nightingale) In the second of this year's visits to the Henry Wood Promenade Concerts Jane Glover introduces Stravinsky's evocative setting of HANS ANDERSEN'S fairytale The Emperor and the Nightingale. At the excitable court of a Chinese emperor, the beautiful song of a real nightingale triumphs over the attractions of a mechanical rival.
