BBC Music Day - Scotland

Highlights from BBC Music Day in Scotland

BBC Music Day was at the heart of Glasgow’s five day festival, BBC Music at the Quay. On Friday 5th June Glasgow’s City Halls welcomed a star-studded and diverse line-up to its stage, showcasing classical, jazz, pop and world music.

The BBC’s Scottish Symphony Orchestra accompanied a wealth of performers including Deacon Blue, Jamie Cullum, Noah Stewart and Jaz Dhami. Radio 2’s Ken Bruce co-hosted the evening's proceedings with Radio 3’s Katie Derham. Ken Bruce's show earlier in the day showcased a musical mix of guests and performances on the outdoor stage at Pacific Quay. He was joined by Midge Ure, James Bay, Rae Morris, Black Star Riders and Howard Jones.
