BBC Proms S2026E17 - Mozart at the Proms

Georgia Mann presents a concert from the Royal Albert Hall as Benjamin Marquise Gilmore directs the Academy of St Martin in the Fields, horn player Felix Klieser and bassoonist Amy Harman in Mozart, Thea Musgrave, Britten and Elgar. The orchestra highlights the French horn and bassoon in two concertos - one classic, one contemporary, with Scottish composer Thea Musgrave's bassoon concerto Out of the Darkness receiving its world premiere. Mozart's good-natured Horn Concerto No 3 ends with a rollicking Allegro that's hard to resist, while there are more dancing rhythms from Britten's playful Simple Symphony, based on themes written by the composer before the age of 12. Britten: Simple Symphony. Mozart: Horn Concerto No 3 in E flat. Thea Musgrave: Bassoon concerto Out of the Darkness (BBC commission, world premiere). Elgar: Romance for bassoon and orchestra. Mozart: Symphony No 35 in D, Haffner. Felix Klieser (horn), Amy Harman (bassoon), Academy of St Martin in the Fields, Benjamin Marquise Gilmore (director/leader).
