BBC Proms: Bach and Mendelssohn with Royal Northern Sinfonia
July 26 @ 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

Celebratory. Majestic. Two towering musical masterpieces.
Who’s on stage
The incredible sound of our home orchestra Royal Northern Sinfonia and Principal Conductor Dinis Sousa gets even bigger with over 200 singers from Chorus of Royal Northern Sinfonia, Huddersfield Choral Society and Voices of the Rivers’ Edge. Expressive pianist David Fray captivates in an emotive concert that will be recorded live for future broadcast on BBC Radio and TV.
What they’re playing
We have a double whammy of classical masterpieces on the bill tonight. Experience Bach’s dark and dramatic Keyboard Concerto in D minor followed by Mendelssohn’s Second Symphony. Better known as Lobgesang (Hymn of Praise), it’s the ultimate expression of joy and faith.
