BBC Proms in the park come to Manchester for TV and radio extravaganza


Music lovers across the North West are invited to join in the fun of a BBC Proms in the Park concert for the Last Night of the Proms, at the beautifully restored Heaton Park on Saturday 10 September at 7.30pm. The Manchester-based BBC Philharmonic tops the bill with New Zealand star soprano Hayley Westenra.
The concert will be hosted by BBC GMR's Heather Stott, and as in previous years there will be a live TV link up with the famous finale of the BBC's Last Night of the Proms from the Royal Albert Hall. Televised highlights of all five Proms in the Park will be shown as part of BBC1 and BBC2's live coverage of the Last Night of the Proms, and the entire Manchester concert will go out live on BBC GMR.
The BBC Philharmonic will be conducted by Stephen Bell, and 18 year old singing sensation Hayley Westenra will perform tracks from her latest album.
She will also sing classical favourites like Ave Maria and Puccini's O mio babbino caro. BBC Young Musician of the Year finalist, euphonium virtuoso David Childs is another star attraction on the night, and he will play his own orchestration of the Carnival of Venice. Local performers Duel, Aquarelle and Chetham's School will also perform on stage pre-concert.
The concert programme will include Shostakovich's Festival Overture, extracts from Walton's Henry V, the finale of Tchaikovsky's Swan Lake and Rimsky-Korsakov's The Flight of the Bumble Bee. After the interval the BBC Philharmonic will play extracts from Glinka's Ruslan and Ludmila as well as the rousing Dambusters March by Coates.
