2025 BBC Proms concert announced

John Wilson and Sinfonia of London return to the BBC Proms on Friday 12th September 2025, for an unmissable programme of Strauss, Bernstein and Ravel at London’s Royal Albert Hall.
Critics have praised Sinfonia of London Proms performances as ‘breathtaking’, ‘blazing’ and ‘simply as good as it gets’. Now John Wilson and the Sinfonia of London double down with a passion-soaked programme of 20th-century orchestral showpieces.
Love is the theme of a Prom that opens with history’s greatest seducer, Don Juan, in Strauss’s swashbuckling tone-poem and closes with the sensuous, diaphanous textures of Ravel’s ballet Daphnis and Chloe. At the centre is one of Bernstein’s most lyrical orchestral works. James Ehnes is the soloist in Serenade – a violin concerto by another name that muses on, and interrogates, the nature of love itself.
