The world’s long running orchestral music show pays its first visit to Saffron Hall.
First broadcast in 1953 on the Light Programme, Friday Night is Music Night is now well into its 7th decade.

The BBC Concert Orchestra's principal cellist Benjamin Hughes is the soloist in Dvorak's Silent Woods and pianist Roderick Elms joins the orchestra for Rachmaninov's 18th variation of his Rhapsody on a theme of Paganini plus Richard Addinsell's great filmic work The Warsaw Concerto.
