Part 2

From the Royal Albert Hall, London. Presented by Sean Rafferty.

Proms-featured pianist Stephen Hough joins Sean in the Radio 3 box for Part 2 of the traditional Last Night festivities, led for the first time by David Robertson, principal guest conductor of the BBC Symphony Orchestra.

The programme concludes with orchestral fireworks by Handel, new fanfares specially-written by six young Proms Inspire composers for a special link-up with the Proms in the Parks events around the UK. And there is fun and games in memory of Gerard Hoffnung, with Malcom Arnold's uproarious piece that includes vacuum cleaners, floor polishers and rifles.
