BBC - Electric Proms, 2008, Maddy Prior

Maddy Prior performs songs from her album, Seven For Old England, and from her repertoire.

Maddy Prior performs songs from her current album, and from her repertoire, at London's Cecil Sharp House.

Maddy Prior returns to her English traditional roots to perform songs from her current album, Seven For Old England, and from her repertoire, at the English Folk Dance and Song Society headquarters in London's Camden Town.

It's a special moment at Cecil Sharp House, where Maddy researched both her first and her most recent albums. The concert sees her reunited with former Steeleye Span bandmate Tim Hart, and with June Tabor of her Silly Sisters era, and also features Rose Kemp, Maddy's daughter. This promises to be a special night for English folk and the Electric Proms.

BBC Four reflects arts, music and culture with an ambitious range of intellectually and culturally enriching programmes, taking an expert and in-depth approach to its subjects.

Coverage from the 2008 edition of the festival.
