Aired Sep 9, 2000
Stephanie Hughes introduces live coverage of the second half of tonight's concert from London's Royal Albert Hall. The post-interval performance opens with a new work, an arrangement of Shostakovich's Jazz Suite No 2 by Gerald McBurney , followed by Percy Grainger 's tribute to Camptown Races composer Steven Foster. Delius's The Walk to the Paradise Garden precedes the traditional climax to the last night - Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance March No 1, Henry Wood 's Fantasia on British Sea Songs, Arne's Rule, Britannia! and Parry's Jerusalem.
