Concert Information
A great music festival should always have a party to end with and the Last Night of the Proms has become one of the best-known and best-loved musical events of the international calendar.
Featuring much-loved classics from Shostakovich and Debussy, Proms soloist Benjamin Grosvenor performs Saint-Sa毛ns鈥檚 Second Piano Concerto, described by one contemporary wit as 鈥榮tarting with Bach and ending with Offenbach鈥; the 成人快手 Singers join the orchestra for Handel鈥檚 most popular anthem, Zadok the Priest, written for the Coronation of King George II in 1727, and virtuoso oud player Joseph Tawadros gives the world premiere of his new work, hot on the heels of his quartet鈥檚 late-night 成人快手 Proms Dubai concert of jazz-traditional fusion.
Add to this the traditional musical elements of the Last Night 鈥 Henry Wood鈥檚 Fantasia on British Sea-Songs and Elgar鈥檚 Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1 鈥 with the whole evening presided over by Edward Gardner, a frequent guest both of the 成人快手 Proms and the 成人快手 Symphony Orchestra 鈥 and you have an unmissable event to mark the culmination of the first 成人快手 Proms Dubai festival.
