Music for Youth Proms
Featuring BBC Ten Pieces
Showcasing the brilliance of young musicians from across the UK.
The Music for Youth Proms showcases the brilliance of young musicians from across the whole UK. Known for its electric atmosphere and diverse musical performances, each night, over 1500 amazing young musicians perform on the iconic Royal Albert Hall stage in ensembles, bands, and choirs large and small. From orchestral classics to traditional folk and roots and from big band jazz to big sound rock and pop.
This year’s Music for Youth Proms will feature the world premiere of a brand-new commission by Scottish composer Aileen Sweeney, with evocative text by poet Iona Lee. Rooted in the powerful and timeless theme of Folklore, this piece will be a highlight of the event – an unforgettable experience for performers and audiences alike. The piece is commissioned in partnership with BBC, ABRSM and the Royal Albert Hall as part of the BBC Ten Pieces project.
