Hello Everyone,
just to let you know that the Henry Wood Promenade concerts began two days ago in London's The Royal Albert Hall. You can listen online to many of the world's great orchestras, and perhaps hear some of your favourite soloists/players. This year there are visits from the New York Philharmonic, the Berlin Philharmonic, and the Chicago symphony orchestras. Sure to be amazing. The link below brings up the Proms website and the BBC I-Player to listen online to all the concerts, as and when they are broadcast.

The first night of the proms included Nicholas Daniel performing the Mozart oboe concerto, while the second night had Nigel Kennedy, returning to the proms for the first time in 21 years, giving a stunning performance of the Elgar violin concerto.
You should be able to listen to most of the performances for upto seven days after the original broadcast. Enjoy! James
