Sean Rafferty presents live music from singer Michael Ball and writer Michael Rosen joins members of the Homemade Orchestra to talk about their collaboration.

Sean Rafferty presents, with live music and guests from this year's Proms season

Writer Michael Rosen is joining up with the Homemade Orchestra for a very special Proms performance, and they give us a sneak preview.

Conductor Stephen Bell drops in to tell Sean about a special concert he's conducting at the weekend - The Halle with a space-themed programme at Jodrell Bank.

National Treasure Simon Callow has another musical project up his sleeve - he'll be trying to get Inside Wagner's Head at the Royal Opera House's Linbury Studio Theatre in a new one-man show commissioned for this year's Deloitte Ignite curated by Stephen Fry.

Plus singer Michael Ball talks to Sean about all things Gershwin ahead of his outdoor concert at Kenwood House - he'll also be singing live in the studio.

Main headlines are at 5pm and 6pm.
