From moonlight and fairy tales to soul fusion and a riot of South American rhythm, the first ever Dream Prom weaves a vivid tapestry reflecting the ideas of dreams, memories and the healing power of music. These are the musical stories collected from and shaped by this year’s BBC Open Music trainees – 30 talented young creatives selected from over 1,300 applicants, and reflecting a wide array of national heritage and social background. Merged into a seamless whole by specially created sound design, this is a journey through songs heard in the womb, music that brings us together, the sounds that keep us true to our beliefs and the ones that join us along the path of discovering who we truly are.
