The annual Proms Season has been announced!
An amazing itinerary (as ever) - everything from Rachmaninov to Rufus Wainright to Radiohead, Mozart to Mahler to Lata Mangheshkar, Bach to Berlioz to Dee Dee Bridgewater, and much much more besides, over 71 concerts from 14th July to 9th September, and apart from the Royal Albert Hall, in venues up and down the country. Wow.
And people knock the BBC licence fee, which pays for it all (mostly refunded by ticket sales, of course)!
By way of a celebration, here's a remarkably talented lady, indeed. Performing herself at Prom #28, South Africa's finest Miss Masabane Cecilia Rangwanasha (for it is she) is not yet 30 years old - yet has a set of pipes on her that would make many a seasoned diva envious!
Here she is, celebrating another of London's grandest music venues the Royal Opera House, at the time it reopened for live performances after the pandemic:
Simply too, too divine.
