The 2025 BBC Proms Festival may have come to its conclusion, but we still have lots of recorded highlights to bring your way, and Steve Seel shares two on the latest episode of Extra Eclectic, from a Royal Albert Hall concert on August 31. Anna Clyne’s The Years — a work written during the uneasy time of the global pandemic — and Bent Sorensen's Evening Landare featured in the first hour, and in the second hour, we begin our celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month with modern works from Mexico, Venezuela, Argentina and Peru, including Gabriela Ortiz’ Canto Abierto, Osvaldo Golijov’s Lua Descoloria, and Jimmy Lopez Bellido’s Peru Negro.
