BBC Proms: Sibelius’s Second

Royal Albert Hall, SW7 2AP , [Venue Details]

The prestigious Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra – the world’s longest-established symphony orchestra, famous for the glossy richness of its ‘Leipzig sound’ – returns to the Proms under Music Director Andris Nelsons.

Tuesday,
26 Aug 2025
@7.30pm

Joining them, back at the Proms for the first time since 2010, is American violinist Hilary Hahn, soloist in Dvořák’s colourful, folk-inspired Violin Concerto.

The elemental power of Sibelius’s Symphony No. 2, with its heroic final movement, has become indelibly associated with Finland’s fight for freedom, no less personal a statement than the fragile, hypnotic beauty of Arvo Pärt’s tribute to Benjamin Britten.

Programme

Arvo Pärt Cantus in memoriam Benjamin Britten 6’
Dvořák Violin Concerto in A minor 32’

Interval

Sibelius Symphony No. 2 in D major 46’
