This Prom is not broadcast.
Spend a fun-packed, riotous morning in
the company of Peter Duncan, Gemma Hunt, the BBC Philharmonic,
youth choirs and the funky Bollywood
Brass Band. Our concert includes Connie Fisher singing My Favourite Things, the blazing brass of Copland's ceremonial Fanfare for the Common Man and Elgar's
'Land of Hope and Glory' – a traditional
Last Night of the Proms favourite. This
year's Proms Shakespeare theme also
makes an appearance in classics inspired
by Romeo and Juliet from Prokofiev and
Bernstein – and there’s even Stravinsky's
arrangement of 'Happy Birthday To You',
written for the 80th birthday of conductor
Pierre Monteux, but here marking the 80th
anniversary of the BBC's association with
the Proms. Jamboree!
