Dvořák’s New World Symphony at the Proms
8pm, BBC Four
The Proms are in full swing, kicking the weekend off with a “musical postcard from America”. The night starts with the European premiere of Adolphus Hailstork’s An American Port of Call, followed by Jennifer Higdon’s Blue Cathedral and Arturo Márquez’s Concierto de Otoño. It ends in grand, sweeping style with Antonín Dvořák’s Symphony No 9 in E minor, “From the New World”. Domingo Hindoyan conducts the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra, with trumpeter Pacho Flores. Hollie Richardson
