First Night of the Proms 2023

Clive Myrie is joined by special guests Sandi Toksvig and Anna Lapwood for the First Night of the Proms, live from the Royal Albert Hall. 2023’s eight-week musical extravaganza launches in style with Sibelius’s ever-popular Finlandia, Grieg’s dramatic Piano Concerto performed by classical superstar Paul Lewis, and Britten’s much-loved The Young Person’s Guide to the Orchestra.

The concert also includes a rare opportunity to hear Sibelius’s Snofrid, making its Proms debut, and a world premiere from Ukrainian composer Bohdana Frolyak.

This musical feast is brought by the BBC Symphony Orchestra, with the BBC Symphony Chorus and BBC Singers under the baton of principal guest conductor Dalia Stasevska.
