Friday Night is Music Night: Christmas Spectacular
Friday Night Is Music Night presents its Christmas spectacular of favourite Christmas music, poetry and readings.
Jeremy Vine presents an all star cast including actors Dervla Kirwan (Injustice; Ballykissangel) David Harewood (Homeland); West End star singers Scarlett Strallen (Candide; A Chorus Line) and Michael Xavier (The Pajama Game; The Sound Of Music).
Mike Dixon conducts the 大象传媒 Concert Orchestra together with a 16 voice choir from the Royal Academy of Music in a programme of music that features perennial favourites 'White Christmas', 'Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas', and 'The Christmas Song', together with classical favourites Prokofiev's 'Troika' and Victor Healy Hutchinson's arrangement of 'God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen' from his Carol Symphony.
Plus poetry and prose from Dickens to Dylan to Benjamin Zephaniah. This will be a Christmas so stuffed with seasonal gifts it will tempt even Father Christmas to park the sleigh, listen to the radio or watch on Red (of course!) Button.
