Nick Drake - An Orchestral Celebration
There has never been an artist quite like Nick Drake, one of the great poets of the folk-rock movement. Fifty years on from his death at the age of just 26, the British singer-songwriter has found a new, cross-generational audience - many of them beguiled by his fragility and fatalism, his music's mingling of the outwardly simple and the inwardly complex. For this tribute Prom, Jules Buckley brings together a selection of artists to join the BBC Symphony Orchestra for a unique celebration, with songs including 'River Man', 'Cello Song', 'Time Has Told Me' and 'Northern Sky'.
