Celebrate the BBC Proms in the world-famous acoustics of St George’s!
The Danish National Vocal Ensemble presents a choral dialogue across the centuries, with British composer and suffragette Ethel Smyth responding to Bach and Italian-born Paola Prestini reflecting on Palestrina, born 500 years ago.
