BBC Proms 2026: Miles Davis Centenary (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The BBC Concert Orchestra, conducted by Miho Hazama, joined with a jazz quartet for last night’s Prom, in celebration of jazz legend Miles Davis, with Hazama’s own orchestrations featuring throughout. Centre-stage was Ambrose Akinmusire on trumpet, who played with cool virtuosity, though bringing a very different emotional musical range to Davis’s.

Read excerpt
Last night’s concert at the Proms was varied both in its programming and its effect. A line-up including composer Mark-Anthony Turnage’s orchestral suite drawn from his opera Festen, Britten’s Cello Symphony and Sibelius’s second symphony brought a range of colour and style, as well as some inconsistency in commitment and execution. The evening started with the UK premiere from Turnage of a series of vignettes from the composer’s disturbing psychological drama, Festen. Though off to a rhythmical
