Venezuelan Brass Ensemble perform alongside LSO Saturday 10.15pm

Forwarded mail re-Saturday's Albert Hall Prom.

 .....We hope that you are enjoying your summer.
We wanted to let you know about a change in Saturday
night's Prom that you might be interested in.

VENEZUELAN BRASS ENSEMBLE PERFORM ALONGSIDE LSO
FOLLOWING VENGEROV CANCELLATION

It is with regret that BBC Proms announces that Maxim
Vengerov has withdrawn from his performance on
Saturday 18 August with the London Symphony Orchestra.
He was due to give the UK premiere of Benjamin
Yusupov?s Viola Rock Tango Concerto.

Vengerov has been suffering from a shoulder injury and
is unable to prepare to play a concerto, written
especially for him, where he performs on the violin,
the electric violin and the viola and dances the
tango. Vengerov is very sorry for the disappointment
that this will cause his many fans.

Because of the unique nature of the event, the BBC
Proms and the London Symphony Orchestra have decided
to maintain the spirit of Latin American music as a
theme for the evening.

We are delighted to announce that the Venezuelan Brass
Ensemble ? nearly sixty brass and percussion players
drawn from the extraordinary Simón Bolivar Youth
Orchestra of Venezuela, who are due to give the main
sold-out evening Prom on Sunday 19 August ? will now
play alongside the London Symphony Orchestra in the
Late Night concert on Saturday 18 August at 10.15pm.

The London Symphony Orchestra perform Piazzolla?s
Tangazo as billed, conducted by François-Xavier Roth.
They now also bring John Adams?s arrangements of
Piazzolla?s violin pieces, La mufa, and Todo Buenos
Aires, and two works by Copland: El sálon México and
?Hoe-down? from Rodeo.

The Venezuelan Brass Ensemble, conducted by its
founder Thomas Clamor, then take over with music by
Copland, R. Strauss, J. S. Bach, Gershwin and
Latin-American composers. This will be the UK debut of
this highly acclaimed group, which has grown out of
the extraordinary state-sponsored system which
comprises some 200 children?s and young people?s
orchestras and about 100 music centres, spread all
over the country and promises to be a remarkable
foretaste of the Simón Bolivar Youth Orchestra?s
much-anticipated Prom the following evening.

Sadly Maxim Vengerov has had to cancel his appearance.
Because of a minor injury he has been unable to
dedicate the time necessary to prepare the concerto
which was written specially for him. He was due to
give the UK premiere of Benjamin Yusupov?s Viola Rock
Tango Concerto.

The programme for the concert has been changed and we
are delighted that as well as the London Symphony
Orchestra, now conducted by François-Xavier Roth, we
have secured the participation of the brilliant young
Venezuelan Brass Ensemble, drawn from the ranks of the
Simón Bolivar Youth Orchestra of Venezuela which is
giving a sold-out Prom on  Sunday 19 August, directed
by Thomas Clamor.

Any ticket holders not now wishing to attend the
revised concert, are asked to contact the box office
