Presented by Petroc Trelawny. With award-winning a cappella group, The King's Singers, and Argentinian Tango Fire band, Quatrotango, joined by singer Pablo Lago.

Petroc Trelawny presents a selection of music and guests from the arts world.

Fresh from the success at the Grammys with their disc of ballads, folk songs and spiritual melodies, Simple Gifts, the King's Singers perform tracks from their disc Romance du Soir in the studio. They perform three concerts in the UK in March 2009.

Argentinian dance show Tango Fire returns to the Peacock Theatre, London, after their success in 2007. Petroc is joined by the show's four-piece band, Quatrotango, and singer Pablo Lago.
