Stephanie Hughes introduces live coverage of the second half of tonight's concert from London's Royal Albert Hall. The BBC Symphony Orchestra, conducted by Andrew Davis , performs Johann Strauss 's overture to Die Fledermaus followed by Willard White singing songs from the shows including OJ' Man R/Verfrom Show Boat and Some Enchanted Evening from South Pacific. The BBC Symphony Chorus and BBC Singers then join the orchestra in a performance of Vaughan Williams's stirring Toward the Unknown Region. A centenary tribute to Noël Coward by actor Jeremy Irons then leads into the traditional climax to the last night - Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance March No 1, Henry Wood 's Fantasia on British Sea Songs, followed by Arne's Rule, Britannia!, and then Parry's Jerusalem.
