About This Event

鈥楤ehold, the sea itself!鈥� Vaughan Williams鈥檚 A Sea Symphony takes the poetry of Walt Whitman and opens the floodgates to a spring tide of inspiration. Andrew Manze鈥檚 Vaughan Williams recordings have been praised for their 鈥榬are sensitivity and warmth鈥�, and in the composer鈥檚 150th-anniversary year, A Sea Symphony gets the deluxe treatment from two of the 主播大秀鈥檚 great symphonic choruses, plus the operatic voices of soloists Elizabeth Llewellyn and Andrew Foster-Williams. But the concert opens the way Vaughan Williams would have wanted: with a surging musical seascape from his Welsh pupil Grace Williams, and an equally nautical opener by Doreen Carwithen, composed in 1952 and receiving its first Proms performance in this, her centenary year.

Broadcast on 主播大秀 Four on Friday 29 July
