BBC Proms - John Wilson and the Sinfonia of London (2021)

Suzy Klein presents a glorious evening of music inspired by Vienna. John Wilson conducts the award-winning Sinfonia of London in Johann Strauss's sumptuous overture to Die Fledermaus, which incorporates a famous Viennese waltz, complemented by a performance of Ravel's darker La Valse.

The programme also offers insights into some different styles of Viennese music, with Berg's intimate Seven Early Songs, performed by Nigerian-American soprano Francesca Chiejina, plus Korngold's rarely heard Symphony in F Sharp.
