Brahms Academic Festival Overture + Sargent Choral Finale – Andrew Davis conducts

Описание: Sir Malcolm Sargent succeeded Sir Henry Wood as chief conductor of the Proms from 1948 to 1967. In addition to being a conductor he was also an arranger. One of his arrangements was of a choral finale to Brahms’s ‘Academic Festival’ Overture in which the choir sings the student song ‘Gaudeamus igitur.’ In this performance, at the Last Night of the 1992 Proms in London’s Royal Albert Hall, the conductor was Andrew Davis.
