The annual Henry Wood Promenade Concerts, founded in 1895, featuring orchestral classical music and centred around the Royal Albert Hall in London. Richard Strauss's 1945 Metamorphosen is an ecstatic, elegiac work which ends with a quote from Beethoven's Eroica that mourns the devastation of the Second World War.
