First Prom of the season:Prom No. 5
Sam Hayden: Substratum (BBC commission: world premiere)
Bernstein: Symphony No. 2, 'The Age of Anxiety'
Ives: Symphony No. 4
Rather surprised at quite how small the audience is - can't be more than 25% capacity. I was expecting more, particularly for Ives' richly packed and rarely performed 4th Symphony.
At least the poor attendance meant that it was not too hot in there, but it was a strangely cold audience, and not a particularly memorable concert.
