Last Night of the Proms

Synopsis

Live at London's Royal Albert Hall, Alan Titchmarsh introduces the final concert in the Proms season. In Shostakovich's centenary year, a Russian theme is reflected as baritone Dmitri Hvorostovsky and violinist Viktoria Mullova perform works by Borodin, Rubinstein and Prokofiev. The BBC Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Mark Elder, also performs works by Shostakovich, Verdi, Wagner and Colin Matthews.
