Part of the BBC Proms. Switzerland's longest-established orchestra, the Tonhalle Orchestra Zürich, makes a welcome return to the Proms with Tchaikovsky's passionate Violin Concerto (featuring soloist August Hadelich) and Dvorak's nostalgic 'New World' Symphony, drawing on the African American and Native American melodies he heard during his three years as director of New York's National Conservatory for Music. The evening opens with Beethoven's The Consecration of the House, a heartfelt homage to the composer's musical forefathers, Handel and Bach.
