16F BBC NATIONAL ORCHESTRA OF WALES

Our now Associate Orchestra, the BBC National Orchestra of Wales, returns to the Festival with its RPS award-winning Principal Conductor, Ryan Bancroft, for a 40th anniversary performance that celebrates both the Festival’s inaugural 1982 programming and #RVW150 – via Vaughan Williams’ much loved Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis – as well as a major symphonic work which will be heard at the Festival for the very first time, Schumann’s Symphony No. 2.

BBCNOW performs annually at the BBC Proms and biennially at the BBC Cardiff Singer of the World competition, and its concerts can be heard regularly across the BBC: on Radio 3, Radio Wales and Radio Cymru.
