Tonight we present a unique concert recorded at the 2019 BBC Proms, curated by Radiohead guitarist and composer Jonny Greenwood. The minimalist programme includes music by Steve Reich, plus Greenwood’s own ‘Horror Vacui’ for solo violin and 68 strings, inspired by a composer’s fear of the empty page. We’ll hear highlights from the concert featuring violinist Daniel Pioro with the BBC National Orchestra of Wales and the Proms Youth Ensemble, conducted by Hugh Brunt.
