The Last Night of the Proms

on BBC One London

Stephanie Hughes introduces live coverage of the second half of tonight's concert from London's Royal Albert Hall.
The post-interval performance opens with a new work, an arrangement of Shostakovich's Jazz Suite No 2 by Gerald McBurney , followed by Percy Grainger 's tribute to Camptown Races composer Steven Foster. Delius's The Walk to the Paradise Garden precedes the traditional climax to the last night - Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance March No 1, Henry Wood 's Fantasia on British Sea Songs, Arne's
Rule, Britannia! and Parry's Jerusalem. The second half of tonight's Prom can also be heard on both Radio 2 and Radio 3. See Choice. (S) (W)
