Performance NotesLuther Adams is a master of large-scale musical spectacles – sonic installations that take the natural world not just as their inspiration but also as a stage. The European premiere of 'In the Name of the Earth' celebrates the elements in a musical meditation on rivers, lakes, mountains and deserts.

The Proms audience immersed in the sound of eight choirs – totalling more than 600 singers – placed around the auditorium.

Audience members who would like to participate in the performance were invited to a preparatory sing- through of the final theme of ‘In the Name of the Earth’.
