    About This Event

    The biggest night in classical music is back! After eight weeks and over 80 concerts, the 2025 ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Proms celebrates with a Last Night spectacular, packed with musical surprises and star turns. Elim Chan conducts the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Symphony Orchestra and Chorus in all the traditional favourites – anthems, folk songs and singalongs – with solo performances by ‘captivating’ soprano Louise Alder and ‘sensational’ trumpeter Alison Balsom. There’s a nod to this season’s Bernard Herrmann celebration, a mischevous sorcerer’s apprentice from Dukas, and premieres by Camille Pépin and Rachel Portman.

    Broadcast live on ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Two (first half) and ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ One (second half), and ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ iPlayer
