You can listen to the 1st of three Proms concerts featuring Villa-Lobos at the BBC's Proms website, for a limited time only. It's the
2nd Chamber Music Prom, and it features soprano Golda Schultz and cellist Guy Johnston, with lots of cello friends.
Still to come at the Proms:
The first movement of the orchestral version of number 4 is part of the August 24
Prom 51 concert by the Sao Paulo Symphony Orchestra under Marin Alsop. This Prelude movement is often programmed separately in Brazil. It's great to see that Marlos Nobre's
Kabbalah is also included on the program.
Bachianas Brasileiras number 2, played by the Simon Bolivar Symphony Orchestra under Gustavo Dudamel, is part of
Prom 67 on September 4. I'm also looking forward to hearing the Venezuelan composer Paul Desenne's
Hipnosis mariposa.
