Notes: This Prom had a single piece, the Vespers of 1610. It goes for 100 minutes with no interval. I don't know much about music from this era, so for me it was less about music that I recognised, and I actually spent much of the time with my back to the stage, sitting on the floor, letting the music wash over me. It was gorgeous, soothing, pleasant music. I really enjoyed the experience.
