Data emisji: Lip 28, 2017

Sir Malcolm Sargent was the chief conductor of the Proms for two decades, bringing the concerts to TV audiences for the first time. To mark the 50th anniversary of his death, Andrew Davies conducts the BBC Symphony Orchestra and young pianist Beatrice Rana to recreate Sargent's 500th Prom from 1966. Alongside Schumann and Berlioz, there is a feast of English music by composers including Elgar and Holst, with the evening culminating in Britten's much-loved The Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra.
