Night of the Proms

In the organizer's words:

Night of the Proms 2025 - the artists have been confirmed!

Rock meets new wave, soul and German pop

Munich, 27.05 2025 - A spectacular musical event is on the horizon: Night of the Proms is going on tour again in 2025 with a top-class line-up of artists. The line-up includes rock legend Alice Cooper, new wave pioneer Midge Ure, German pop singer Michael Schulte, soul talent extraordinaire Joss Stone, vocal wonder Vanessa Amorosi and Danish percussion phenomenon Safri Duo. Together with a classical orchestra, choir and band, the result is a rousing bridge between classical and popular music, classical and pop, past and present.

The concept - classical meets pop, passion meets perfection

The Night of the Proms is far more than just an ordinary concert. Since it was founded in Belgium in 1985, it has thrilled hundreds of thousands of spectators throughout Europe every year. What makes it so special: International pop stars perform their greatest hits - not with a pure rock band, however, but in opulent arrangements with a large symphony orchestra and classical choir. The whole thing is combined with works from classical music history - from Beethoven and Mozart to modern composers.
This combination of orchestral sound splendor and pop culture creates a musical arc of suspense that guarantees goose bumps. Live, powerful, emotional - the Night of the Proms is a concert experience that transcends genre boundaries and connects people.

Alice Cooper - the shock rocker with cult status

For over five decades, Alice Cooper has stood for spectacular rock shows with theatrical staging, dark glamor and a provocative appearance. He wrote rock history with songs such as "School's Out", "Poison" and "No More Mr. Nice Guy". His trademarks: black eyes
eyes, electric guitar riffs and a stage presence that is second to none. Cooper is regarded as the founder of "shock rock" and influenced generations of musicians. The fact that he is now performing at the Night of the Proms promises an electrifying combination of orchestral drama and hard rock - a premiere that fans should not miss.

Midge Ure - The voice behind "Vienna"

Midge Ure is an icon of the 80s and far beyond. As frontman of the band Ultravox, he shaped the new wave sound with epochal songs such as "Vienna" and "Dancing with Tears in My Eyes". But he also set standards as a solo artist. His involvement in the Band Aid project ("Do They Know It's Christmas?"), which he launched together with Bob Geldof, demonstrates his social influence beyond music. His soulful voice and the electronic soundscape of his music harmonize perfectly with orchestral arrangements - an ideal addition to the Proms concept.

Michael Schulte - Emotions made in Germany

Singer-songwriter Michael Schulte touched the whole of Europe in 2018 with his ESC entry "You Let Me Walk Alone" and achieved an impressive fourth place for Germany. Since then, it has been impossible to imagine the German music scene without him. His songs such as "Back to the Start", "Keep Me Up" and "Waterfall" are on constant rotation on the radio and streaming platforms. With his warm voice, honest lyrics and modern pop productions, he inspires a wide audience - and brings a new generation of music fans to the Night of the Proms.

Joss Stone - British soul voice with global stature

Joss Stone celebrated her international breakthrough as a teenager with the album "The Soul Sessions", which brought her worldwide recognition. Her unmistakable soul sound, influenced by greats such as Aretha Franklin and Lauryn Hill, made her one of the most successful British artists of her generation. With hits such as "Super Duper Love", "You Had Me" and "Right to Be Wrong", she combined retro soul with modern flair. Her soulful, nuanced voice will unfold a whole new emotional depth with the symphony orchestra of the Proms.

Vanessa Amorosi - The voice of Australia

With "Absolutely Everybody", Vanessa Amorosi landed a worldwide hit in the early 2000s and became one of Australia's most successful pop singers. Her powerful voice, her stylistic diversity and her impressive stage energy make her a highlight of every live show to this day. Whether pop, soul, rock or gospel - Amorosi moves effortlessly through the genres. Last year, she wowed the audience at the Night of the Proms as the singer of Dave Stewart's Eurythmics. To demonstrate her versatility, the organizer has invited her again.

Safri Duo - rhythm as spectacle

The Danish Safri Duo revolutionized the electronic music scene in the early 2000s with "Played-A-Live (The Bongo Song)". As classically trained drummers, they brought percussion to the clubs and festival stages of the world. Their live performances are
energetic masterpieces: a mixture of tribal beats, electronic sounds and classical virtuosity. At the Night of the Proms, they provide pure energy - a rhythmic thunderstorm that blows up the classical soundscape and sweeps the audience off their seats.

Night of the Proms 2025 - a musical event that builds bridges.
