In past years, The Proms has showcased British film scores and unknown homespun composers to provide an eclectic mix of daring performances - earning a much- deserved reputation as a not-to-be-missed musical jamboree of distinction that champions new music, composers and artists. Each annual Proms Season invites many hundreds of musicians and singers from a wide variety of musical disciplines to concerts at the Royal Albert Hall.
However, the highlight of the festival is arguably the Last Night of the Proms - a rowdy celebration of over a million people swishing Union Jacks and blowing whistles in patriotic merriment. A perennially popular, affair, the Last Night at the Proms offers a chance to revel in a musical tradition of considerable pomp, pageantry and circumstance - an exhilarating, fun-filled finale conducted with energetic aplomb.
