Prom 62: Miah Persson sings Strauss

Please note that Diana Damrau has withdrawn from this Prom due to illness. We are pleased to announce that Miah Persson will perform Ständchen, Das Bächlein, Morgen! and Zueignung by Strauss and Adela Zaharia will perform the world premiere of Iain Bell’s Aurora.

Vasily Petrenko and the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra present a concert that moves from the lush, late-Romantic soundscapes of Strauss’s songs and the sweeping melodic generosity of Elgar’s Italy-inspired overture In the South to the leaner, more percussive intensity of Bartók’s Concerto for Orchestra – a virtuosic showcase for the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra. The concert also includes the world premiere of Iain Bell’s concerto for coloratura soprano and orchestra, Aurora, originally composed especially for Diana Damrau.

Tickets £7.50 - £41
