Following his triumphant
conducting of Havergal
Brian’s ‘The Gothic’
Symphony last year,
Martyn Brabbins brings
another British magnum
opus to the Proms.
Herbert Howells wrote
Hymnus Paradisi ‘for the
drawer’ in the wake of
the tragically early death of his son. Only years
later was he persuaded to release a finished
score to the public. After this light-filled
memorial from a composer closely
identified with Gloucester Cathedral,
we revisit the masterpiece that, in 1908 –
the year of the first London Olympics –
announced a Worcester man’s arrival as perhaps
the greatest of British symphonists.
