A festive, family friendly celebration conducted by Luis Castillo Briceño. Humperdinck’s Hänsel und Gretel Prelude and Bridge’s Christmas Dance lead into Britten’s Young Person’s Guide, before Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite closes in seasonal magic.

Under David Brophy, this Â鶹Éç Radio 3 Friday Night is Music Night celebrates Britain’s bond with the sea. From Sullivan and Walton to Bax and Britten’s Four Sea Interludes, with Gareth Brynmor John, it blends wit, colour and atmosphere.

Under Ludovic Morlot, three imaginative voices take centre stage. Stravinsky’s Jeu des cartes sparkles with wit, Britten’s youthful Double Concerto features Ben Baker and Tim Ridout, and Ravel’s Mother Goose Suite closes in glowing fairy‑tale colour.
