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.

The "first 100 years" theme continues with this re-creation of a Wagner night, a regular feature of the Proms' early years. It's given by the BBC Nationalà Orchestra of Wales under their principal conductor Tadaaki Otaka. Highlights of the concert given last night open with the stirring Tannhauser overture, the most performed work in the history of the Proms, and the Venusberg Music from the same opera. One of Wagner's Wesendonck Songs follows, in which the soloist is Anne Evans, and the concert reaches its climax with two excerpts from Gotterdammerung: Siegfried's Funeral Music and Brunnhilde's Immolation Scene.
