BBC Proms Season 53 Episode 8 aired on September 5, 1999.


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.
In the last visit by celebrities to the BBC Proms at London's Royal Albert Hall, writer and broadcaster Anna Ford introduces highlights of last Thursday's concert commemorating the 150th, 100th and 50th anniversaries of the deaths of Johann Strauss father and son, and Richard Strauss. It's an evening of wine, women and song, with the mood set by waltzes and polkas, as well as Till Eulenspiegel. Soprano Inger Dam-Jensen joins the BBC Symphony Orchestra, which is conducted by Manfred Honeck.
