This event is now in the past
We return to the BBC Proms for a Late Night Prom centred on listening, a shared experience that brings people together through sound.
Featuring Dame Evelyn Glennie, this programme brings together a wide range of musical voices, from the jazz-infused energy of John Coltrane and Duke Ellington to the stillness and intensity of Morton Feldman and Meredith Monk. Though diverse in style, each work invites us into a deeper act of listening to one another, and to the space we share.
At its centre is the world premiere of Wood Pigeon by Héloïse Werner, placing new music alongside a lineage of experimental voices.
Performed with the BBC Singers, this Late Night Prom becomes a collective experience, one that unfolds through attention, connection and shared musical presence.

An extraordinary virtuosic percussionist as well as an engaging personality, she has long been subject to considerable media interest.
Touring internationally as the world's first full-time percussion soloist she has played with all the world's major orchestras, consistently winning massive critical acclaim.

Tom Fetherstonhaugh
Tom’s musical journey began aged four, when his grandmother introduced him to an inspiring violin teacher. At eight, he became a Westminster Abbey chorister, describing the experience as “transformative”, and later attended Cardinal Vaughan Memorial School.
Alongside violin, singing and organ, Tom discovered conducting and a love of bringing musicians together. In 2016, during his final year at school, he founded Fantasia Orchestra.
Today, Tom works with major orchestras including the BBC Philharmonic and National Symphony Orchestra Ireland. Away from music, he enjoys running, jazz and cooking, a process he likens to conducting through balance, pacing and collaboration.
