In a highlight of the 2017 BBC Proms, the City of Birmingham Symphony Orchestra (CBSO) and their music director the young Lithuanian conductor Mirga Gražinytė-Tyla explore the theme of political and artistic freedom through three great works by Beethoven and Stravinsky, and a world premiere from Irish composer Gerald Barry.
The City of Birmingham, the center of Industrialization in England! This shows its greatest achievements also - in classical music.
A woman is conducting this symphony orchestra, and a Lithuanian one - at that! You got to see her in action.
