Michael White s classical news: the Proms; Die Walkure

29 July, 2021 — By Michael White The Royal Albert Hall “WE’VE got as many Plan Bs as will fit into our heads,” the director of the Proms, David Pickard, told me last week. And he probably wasn’t exaggerating. When the world’s greatest music festival opens this Friday July 29, it will be welcomed with open arms as a return to normality after last year’s ghost season – running for six weeks, with 61 concerts, real live audiences, and a proper Last Night on September 11. But, as Pickard admits, “it’s a fluid situation with a lot that could go wrong: the likelihood of artists being pinged and forced to isolate is bound to trip us up, so we live from day to day and keep our options open – which is why there are still gaps in the programme that we’ll fill in due course”.
