Aretha Franklin - Queen of Soul
In her 80th-anniversary year - and 50 years since the release of her album Young, Gifted and Black - the Proms pays tribute to the ‘Queen of Soul', Aretha Franklin. A singer, songwriter, pianist and one of the best-selling recording artists of all time, whose song
Respect' became an anthem of the American Civil Rights Movement, Franklin is remembered in a unique Prom featuring a collection of her greatest hits with a dynamic orchestral backing.
