A Concert for the 80th birthday of HM the Queen
Live from the Royal Albert Hall, London.

Her Majesty the Queen and HRH the Duke of Edinburgh are guests of honour at tonight's Prom. Peter Maxwell Davies, Master of the Queen's Music, and Andrew Motion, poet laureate, have created a special musical birthday present for Her Majesty - a new cantata exploring the themes of constancy and the environment, to be performed by massed children's voices, fanfare trumpeters and orchestra. Youth remains centre-stage with the teenage soloist in Mozart's Clarinet Concerto, before the orchestra's new chief conductor brings an authentic Czech stamp to Dvorak's popular symphony. Presented by Petroc Trelawny.
Julian Bliss (basset clarinet), Choristers of the Chapels Royal, St James 's Palace and Hampton Court Palace, City of Birmingham Symphony Youth Chorus, Children's International Voices of Enfield, Finchley Children's Music Group, New London Children's Choir, Southend Boys' and Girls' Choirs, Trinity Boys' Choir, Fanfare
