This year\u2019s BBC Proms season is coming to a close, with some of the best musicians around the world having performed across the UK over the last eight weeks.<\/p>\n

This year\u2019s festival consisted of 84 proms \u2014 72 Proms at the Royal Albert Hall, six at venues across the UK, and the first ever weekend-long festival of Proms at Sage Gateshead \u2014 and took place between Friday 14th July and Saturday 9th September 2023.<\/p>\n

This year, for the first time, the Proms opened and will close with a female conductor<\/a>, with Dalia Stasevska having led the First Night and Marin Alsop conducting the Last Night of the Proms.<\/p>\n

11 of this year\u2019s 21 premieres are by female composers, and a third of the festival\u2019s 84 concerts include works by women.<\/p>\n

Tonight (Saturday 9th September), cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason and soprano Lise Davidsen will join Marin Alsop and the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus for what has been called \u201cthe biggest musical party of the year\u201d.<\/p>\n
