Andrew Manze conducts the BBC National Orchestra of Wales in a Prom with an atmospheric nautical theme.\n\nDoreen Carwithen’s powerful and vivid overture depicts the harsh, cold Atlantic waters battering Bishop Rock, 30 miles off Land’s End. Its lighthouse is a seafarer’s last sighting of terra firma as they head west. \n\nGrace Williams’s Sea Sketches, inspired by her home town of Barry in south Wales, capture the sea’s effervescent personality.\n\nVaughan Williams’s majestic A Sea Symphony, featuring multiple choirs, together with soloists Elizabeth Llewellyn and Jacques Imbrailo, rounds off the evening. \n\nGeorgia Mann presents alongside special guests.
