Description

In 1994 Britain celebrated the hundredth season of the best-loved of all its musical institutions, ‘The Proms’. The hundredth season’s concluding the concert – ‘The Last Night of the Proms’ – was conceived as a tribute to Proms founder Sir Henry Wood. The programme included Wood’s own arrangement of Bach’s famed Toccata and fugue in D Minor as well as perennial Proms favourite, his Fantasia on British Sea Songs. Wood was a great champion of new music and novelties, which led to the inclusion of Miki’s Marimba Spiritual, performed by Evelyn Glennie who gave the first ever performance of a percussion concerto at The Proms.
