BBC Radio 3 - BBC Proms, 2013, Prom 58: Light Organ Prom

Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London, Richard Hills in the annual organ Prom.

Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London, Christopher Cook presents the annual organ Prom. Organist Richard Hills performs a selection of arrangements, original works and lollipops.

The annual Royal Albert Hall organ Prom this year sees the mighty Henry Willis instrument in a concert of light music. It's performed by the young British organist Richard Hills - who has an impeccable pedigree as a 'classical' organ player, but also a long-standing interest in the music of the theatre organ. His programme evokes the glory days of the instrument, in the mid twentieth century, with a selection of arrangements, original works and lollipops.
