The world famous Proms season continues at the Royal Albert Hall with a concert by Osmo Vanska and the BBC Symphony Orchestra. They will be performing Beethoven's "Egmont Overture", Mozart's "Clarinet Concerto in A major", Delius' "Eventyr (Once Upon a Time)" and Nielsen's "Symphony No. 5".

As well as working closely with the BBC, the BBC Symphony Orchestra plays regular concerts at the Barbican and is the principal orchestra of world-famous Proms Concerts, giving around a dozen performances each year, including the prestigious First and Last Nights.

The terracota-coloured Royal Albert Hall is one of London’s favourite concert venues. Whilst it remains most famous for classical music and the annual Prom concerts, it also holds rock and pop concerts, sports events and award ceremonies.
