Genehmigt

The BBC National Orchestra of Wales, the Festival’s Associate Orchestra, returns with its RPS award-winning Principal Conductor, Ryan Bancroft, for an evening of song and stunning orchestral music by Hector Berlioz and Jean Sibelius.

A French first half opens with the Overture from ‘Béatrice et Bénédict’ followed by Berlioz’s much-loved song cycle Les nuits d’été, sung by British rising star mezzo soprano Polly Leech.

The second half of tonight’s concert is themed around swans, beginning with Sibelius’s sumptuous tone poem, The Swan at Tuonela, and closing with his Symphony No. 5 in E flat major, said to have been inspired by a flock of the birds overhead.

BBCNOW performs annually at the BBC Proms and its concerts can be heard regularly across the BBC – on Radio 3, Radio Wales & Radio Cymru.

In memory of Mary Parsons
