Wood continued his work with the Proms until his death in 1944.

 During 
the War Sir Adrian Boult and Basil Cameron also took on conducting duties 
for the Proms,
[16]
 and after the War maintained them until the advent 
of Malcolm Sargent as Proms chief conductor in 1947. Sargent held this post 
until 1966; his associate conductor from 1949 to 1959 wasJohn 
Hollingsworth. Sargent was noted for his immaculate appearance (evening 
dress, carnation) and his witty addresses where he good-naturedly chided the 
noisy Prommers. Sir Malcolm championed choral music and classical and 
British composers, especially Samuel Coleridge-Taylor. The charity founded 
in his name, CLIC Sargent, continues to hold a special Promenade Concert 
each year shortly after the main season ends. CLIC Sargent, the Musicians' 
Benevolent Fund and further musical charities (chosen each year) also benefit 
from thousands of pounds in donations from Prommers after most concerts. 
When asking for donations, Prommers from the Arena regularly announce to 
the audience the running donations total at concert intervals through the 
season, or before the concert when there is no interval. 
After Wood's death, Julian Herbage acted as 
de facto
principal administrator 
of the Proms for a number of years, as a freelance employee after his 
retirement from the BBC, with assistance from such staff as Edward 
Clark and Kenneth Wright.

 During the tenure of William Glock as 
Controller of the Proms, beginning in 1960, the Proms repertory expanded 
both forwards in time, to encompass then contemporary and avant-garde 
composers such as Boulez, Berio, Carter, Dallapiccola, Peter Maxwell 
Davies, Gerhard, Henze, Ligeti, Lutosławski, Lutyens, Maw, Messiaen, 
Nono, Stockhausen, and Tippett, as well as backwards to include music by 
past composers such as Purcell, Cavalli, Monteverdi, Byrd, Palestrina, Dufay, 
Dunstaple and Machaut, as well as less-often performed works of Johann 
Sebastian Bach and Joseph Haydn.
From the 1960s, the number of guest 
orchestras at the Proms also began to increase, with the first major 

227 
international conductors (Leopold Stokowski, Georg Solti and Carlo Maria 
Giulini) performing in 1963, and the first foreign orchestra, the Moscow 
Radio Symphony Orchestra, performing in 1966. Since that time, almost 
every major international orchestra, conductor and soloist has performed at 
the Proms. In 1970, Soft Machine's appearance led to press attention and 
comment as the first "pop" band to perform there.
