Sean Rafferty is live in the BBC tent at the Edinburgh Festival.

Join him at the heart of the city as he introduces a host of exciting performers from this year's International and Fringe Festivals.

Renowned baritone Sir Thomas Allen pops in to talk to Sean about his astonishing career and gives us a sneak preview of his upcoming festival performance.

The Chamber Orchestra of Europe and their conductor Yannick Nezet-Séguin have a concert later the same evening but will also be dropping in to play a little Mozart.

Sean is also joined by one of the world's most in-demand pianists, Andreas Haefliger, who will be putting our festival grand piano through its paces in front of our live audience.

We welcome the brilliant Scottish folk group Breabach as our house band, there's live musical comedy from The Horne Section fresh from the Fringe and Sean meets Mary Queen of Scots at the National Gallery of Scotland. Plus, best-selling Scottish author, Alexander McCall-Smith on the programme straight from the Edinburgh Book Festival.
