Katie Derham presents live coverage from the Royal Albert Hall of the first part of the climax of the classical music festival, and is joined by guests Sandi Toksvig and Danielle de Niese. On stage, cellist Sheku Kanneh-Mason and Norweigan soprano Lise Davidsen join the BBC Symphony Orchestra and conductor Marin Alsop. This first half of the night's celebrations includes music by Verdi, Wagner, Bruch and Mascagni and a world premiere from rising star James B Wilson, specially commissioned to commemorate the BBC's centenary last year. The night kicks off with Richard Strauss's swashbuckling Don Juan.

A whistlestop tour through eight weeks of performances from the spectacular array of superstar musicians who have graced the Royal Albert Hall stage this summer. The programme is packed with some of the biggest tunes in classical music, with Beethoven's biggest hits, memorable Mozart and a celebration of Rachmaninov sitting alongside performances from the likes of Yuja Wang, Pekka Kuusisto, and Isata Kanneh-Mason. Plus, symphonic treatments of Northern Soul classics, jazz anthems and music all the way from Bollywood to Hollywood.
