BBC Proms 2009

There is a great deal to enjoy in the contemporary music being presented across this year's Summer Festivals. Among many other key events, we would like to recommend the legendary BBC Proms where our composers are particularly strongly featured with works by Casken, Goehr, Holliger, Hookawa, Martland, Takemitsu, Wigglesworth, Zimmermann and Jörg Widmann - who also has a Proms Portrait.
