BBC Proms S2018E16 - Hungarian Gypsy Folk

Hungary's folk rhythms beat through the heart of this concert as the Budapest Festival Orchestra and founder and conductor Ivan Fischer return to the Proms with an ode to their homeland. Joining them on stage is a trio of the country's folk musicians, and together they showcase why these tunes have been such a rich source of inspiration to composers across history. The Royal Albert Hall resounds with a selection of Liszt's Hungarian Rhapsodies and Brahms's Hungarian Dances, and concludes with Brahms's dramatic First Symphony.
