The programme for #Proms2026 Last Night looks particularly enticing: the Barber piano concerto, Bernstein's Candide overture, Vlatva, Jupiter, two new commissions, Alexander Tsfasman Jazz Suite (I initially misread as Alexandre Tansman), bonus Dolly Parton ... should be a night to remember!

Excuse me how DARE the Spanish National Orchestra bring a rendition of 'Bolero' that's actually fun and interesting to the #Proms2026 ? I did not come here to have the foundations of my world shaken like this.

O.K., Ravel in G - always. A high point in French (European) culture. Plaintive, magical; the slow movement has a shimmering darkness, a finality. But the first half encore of Kosma/Prévert's "Autumn Leaves" has left me tearful. #Proms2026 #YunchanLim #DaliaStasevska

Catching up with Mark-Anthony Turnage's Festen Suite #BBC #Proms2026 #BBCSounds and, unless you saw the opera (and even if you did...) you'd be forgiven for thinking this a score for an Ealing Comedy. Maybe all of them: all at once? It's a masterpiece!
