Performance Notes | The entire Hallé family visits from Manchester to make history at the Proms, as Sir Mark Elder comes to the end of his last season as Music Director after a quarter of a century in the role.
First heard in Cincinnati last year, Sir James MacMillans Timotheus, Bacchus and Cecilia is a celebration of musics ability to move the soul, and unites choirs of children and adults with a huge orchestra as it moves from jubilation to serenity. The evening concludes with the symphony that changed Gustav Mahlers creative direction the great outpouring of defiance, exasperation and all-embracing love that is his Symphony No. 5.
