Royal Albert Hall, London A rattled Khatia Buniatishvili delayed her driven rendition of Tchaikovsky’s Piano Concerto No 1 to the second half of a Prom overshadowed by Palestine protests, yet the orchestra found buoyancy in Dvořák to lift the mood The fallout continues for the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. A year ago, its management cancelled a concert by the pianist Jayson Gillham because of comments he made from the stage condemning the targeting of journalists in Gaza. Despite changes in management, Gillham’s case is still set to go to court – and the MSO remains a target for protest. This was the second ever Prom for the MSO, and twice it was brought to a halt by shouts from the balcony, where the Jewish Artists for Palestine group unfurled banners. The first time, the conductor Jaime Martín went off stage, then returned and started from the top; the second, he immediately resumed where they had left off. If anything it felt a little unfair that the piece disrupted should have been by Haunted Hills by the Australian composer Margaret Sutherland . With loping, almost balletic melodies dragging the ominous weight of tuba and other brass, this muscular 1950 tone poem evokes both the unchanging landscape and what Sutherland called the betrayal of Indigenous people by settlers. Her music still awaits an undisrupted Proms premiere. Continue reading...

"A vessel of the Global Sumud Flotilla moored at Barcelona port on Sunday morning as pro-Palestine activists are preparing to attempt once again to break the Israeli blockade and deliver aid to Gaza. Footage shows hundreds of demonstrators welcoming the arriving vessel with applause and chanting 'Boycott Israel' and 'Free Palestine'. Activists were holding Palestinian flags and banners among others reading: 'For the right to live in peace'. Among others, British punk-rap duo Bob Vylan member Bobby Vylan welcomed the vessel at the port. The duo are widely known as vocal opponents of Israeli military actions in Gaza. "These brave individuals have spent months planning this organisation," Bobby Vylan said. "They're putting themselves in harm's way because of previous missions that have, unfortunately, ended violently." The musician shared that his participation in the flotilla mission was discussed but "some ongoing things that make that unfortunately not possible." "I think the least that I could do is to show some solidarity and to come and support these brave individuals that are doing what our governments have failed to do for the last two years," he added. The Global Sumud Flotilla brings together activists from the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, Maghreb Sumud Flotilla, Global Movement to Gaza, and Sumud Nusantara. The mission is scheduled to set sail for Gaza on Sunday, with planned stops in Italy and Tunisia along the way, and reach its destination in mid-September. The massive civilian fleet is made up of volunteers from 44 countries. The mission follows previous attempts by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition to challenge the blockade, including the Handala and Madleen vessels, both of which were intercepted by Israeli forces this year. The Handala, carrying aid and international activists, was reportedly seized 64 kilometres off Gaza's coast in July. The FCC says the vessel was 'violently intercepted'. It added that the ship's cargo, which included baby formula, nappies, food and medicine, was 'seized' by Israeli forces. Israel has maintained that "unauthorised attempts to breach the blockade are dangerous, unlawful and undermine ongoing humanitarian efforts.""
