The BBC Singers 'Songs from the shows' Christmas party

BBC Radio 3 - Radio 3 in Concert, The BBC Singers 'Songs from the shows' Christmas party

Join Clare Teal and the BBC Singers for a night of show tunes and festive favourites.

Clare Teal joins the BBC Singers, Principal Guest Conductor Owain Park and members of the BBC Concert Orchestra for a night of popular show tunes.

Special guest Clare Teal joins the BBC Singers, members of the BBC Concert Orchestra and Principal Guest Conductor Owain Park for a night of popular show tunes from London's West End and Broadway. 

Alongside several examples of the genius of Richard Rodgers are staples of the genre – the iconic sound of Bernstein’s West Side Story, the complexity of Sondheim, and the all out razzmatazz of Irving Berlin.  There are also nods to Noel Gay and Noel Coward in what is a special anniversary year for both composers. 

Recorded earlier this month at Milton Court and presented by Clare Teal.
