BBC Proms 97

BBC Two
on BBC Two England

The BBC Proms season continues with this live broadcast from the Royal Albert Hall.
Tonight's concert features the Dallas Symphony Orchestra on its first European tour, conducted by Andrew Litton, the new music director. The orchestra performs Roy Harris's Symphony No 3, Samuel Barber's beautiful Violin Concerto, featuring the charismatic young soloist Joshua Bell, and Tchaikovsky's Symphony No 5 in E minor. The interval, filmed in Dallas, shows how the orchestra has made its mark on this all-American city.
