BBC Prom Announced
Britten Sinfonia return to the BBC Proms this July with a concert at London's Royal Albert Hall. This glorious setting will see Britten Sinfonia in BBC Proms No. 32 where we open a day of music for two or more pianos with Fauré's delightful Dolly suite, originally written for two players at one keyboard. Mozart's double concerto is full of playful intimacy, while Saint-Saëns's playful zoological suite contrasts with Lutosławski's virtuosic reworking of a famous Paganini Caprice.

Bach meets Brazil in this concert given by the outstanding pianist, Joanna MacGregor, and one of the UK’s most dynamic and musically inquisitive chamber orchestras, the Britten Sinfonia. This programme crosses the invisible divide between the classical and popular Brazilian music, and the concert is sure to sell out fast.
