Kevin Volans Proms Portrait

Kevin Volans Proms Portrait
Kevin Volans' new Piano Concerto No 3 will doubtless provide a memorable opening to Prom 51 on August 22. Thomas Dausgaard will conduct the BBC Symphony Orchestra in this new BBC commission, the composer's second such work to make its mark at the Proms.

The diverse musical world of Volans will also feature in a Proms Plus Portrait taking place at the Royal Academy of Music on the same day as the premiere. Volans, in conversation with Martin Handley, will discuss his new work and introduce performances of his chamber works, including 1,000 Bars and Asanga, by musicians from the Royal Academy of Music.
