Delta Goodrem performs for Radio 2 Piano Room Month, live from BBC Maida Vale.

Delta Goodrem performs in the Piano Room with special guest, Take That’s Gary Barlow alongside the BBC Concert Orchestra. Plus there's more music quizzing in Ten To The Top.

In the final week of Radio 2’s Piano Room month, today Delta Goodrem performs with special guest, Take That’s Gary Barlow.  

Australian musician Delta Lea Goodrem released her debut studio album, Innocent Eyes, in 2003 - the second-best-selling Australian album of all time.

Delta Goodrem, who will be performing a Take That cover version with Gary Barlow, says, “BBC Radio 2 has shown me incredible support over the past year, with my new song Back To Your Heart being their Record of the Week and the wonderful team getting behind it. I am delighted to be a part of their iconic Piano Room in 2024, and perform with the BBC Orchestra and with my dear friend Gary Barlow. Excited to share more new music with you all!”

Plus 'Line Of Duty' star Martin Compston chooses his ten favourite songs in Tracks of My Years all this week. First shooting to fame in Ken Loach's 'Sweet 16' back in 2002, Martin’s had a varied career on big and small screen, but he's perhaps best loved for his role as DI Steve Arnott in the BBC'S smash-hit drama 'Line of Duty'. He's also had notable TV roles in Monarch of the Glen, The Nest, Traces and Vigil, plus he's appeared in The Damned United, The Wee Man and A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints on the big screen.

In 2022 Martin and his good friend Phil MacHugh toured his beloved homeland in the series ‘Martin Compston’s Scottish Fling’, and this month Martin returns with a new six part series ‘Martin Compston’s Norwegian Fling.’

Vernon also has a trip into the BBC Archive with Vernon's Vault, and the Record and Album Of The Week. Whatever you're up to, Vern wants to hear from you - email vernon@bbc.co.uk - and if you’d like to apply to take part in Ten To The Top, the address you need is tentothetop@bbc.co.uk
