Overview
A fantasy-themed concert by the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain conducted by Semyon Bychkov at their annual prom at the Royal Albert Hall. The witty and thrilling Sorcerer's Apprentice by Paul Dukas opens the programme followed by the London premiere of British composer Julian Anderson's capricious orchestral showpiece Fantasias. The second half of the concert is given over to Berlioz's brilliant work with a nightmarish storyline, Symphonie Fantastique. During the interval presenter Katie Derham meets some of the orchestra on their summer course in Birmingham.
