Kurt Masur conducts the New York Philharmonic - of which he is now music director - at the Proms, in London's Royal Albert Hall , for the first time. Their triumphant partnership is displayed in two orchestral showpieces - Strauss's exuberant tone poem and Tchaikovsky's heartfelt symphony - and a lyrical American concerto, new to the Proms.

"I have an habitual feeling of my real life having passed, and that I am leading a posthumous existence."
Born 200 years ago, Keats remains the archetypal romantic poet, with his brief flowering of greatness snuffed out by a tragic death. Each generation in the 175 years since he died has invented a different John Keats. How have they changed? What is ours? With commentary by Marilyn Butler , Andrew Bennett , Christina Gee ,
Andrew Motion and Nicholas Roe , and Anthony Hyde as Keats. Repeat
