It's been a great year for Friday Night Is Music Night, the world's longest-running live music radio programme. The major highlight of 2010 was the summer season's The Kiri Prize, the search for an opera star of the future with Dame Kiri Te Kanawa. Six hundred entrants, nationwide auditions and a series of tough masterclasses with Dame Kiri resulted in one winner – Shuna Scott Sendall – who sang at Proms In The Park in Hyde Park.

Throughout 2010, Friday Night attracted big-name stars including Neil Sedaka, Bryn Terfel and Monica Mancini, in addition to KT Tunstall and Michael Ball. Among the musical theatre legends, the show has celebrated the work of: Lionel Bart (Oliver!) with Barbara Windsor; Frank Loesser (Guys And Dolls) with Brian Conley and Imelda Staunton; and Kander and Ebb with Joel Grey and Lord Lloyd Webber.

Friday Night Is Music Night also marked the anniversary of the Battle of Britain with a special programme from RAF Northolt featuring over 100 musicians, celebrated Frank Sinatra with the legendary Buddy Greco and Michael Parkinson at the Cheltenham Jazz Festival and crossed continents with a special concert mixing the best of Hollywood music with music from Bollywood.

The Â鶹Éç Philharmonic, with conductor Antonello Manacorda, is joined by former New Generation Artist Shai Wosner for a performance of Mozart's E flat concerto (K 482), in which the winds of the orchestra share almost equal billing with the piano soloist. One of Mozart's exploratory Fantasias provides a centrepiece and the programme begins with the arresting overture to his penultimate opera, Die zauberflote.
