Introduced by Jane Glover Dance - the theme of the 93rd season of Henry Wood Promenade concerts - is a subject close to the heart of tonight's conductor, Isaiah Jackson , who has worked with the Dance Theatre of Harlem and next month becomes the music director of the Royal Ballet.

Rachmaninov had huge hands!' with the BBC Concert Orchestra leader MARTIN LOVEDAY
