Chineke! with Jeneba Kanneh-Mason
Tom Service introduces the Chineke! Orchestra, Britain's only majority black and ethnically diverse orchestra, in works by Florence Price, Samuel Coleridge-Taylor and Fela Sowande, at the Royal Albert Hall. Pianist Jeneba Kanneh-Mason gives the Proms premiere of Price's Piano Concerto in One Movement. Coleridge-Taylor's Overture to Hiawatha's Wedding Feast and First Symphony in A Minor sit alongside the Proms premiere of African Suite for Strings by Nigerian composer Sowande. Conducted by Kalena Bovell, the Prom shines a light on rarely heard composers of African heritage who were huge stars in the first half of the 20th century, but were subsequently written out of classical music performance history.
