Hosted by Katie Derham, Proms Encore is a magazine programme to accompany the BBC Proms. Located at a specially constructed bandstand directly opposite London's Royal Albert Hall, it features live performances and special guests. Katie Derham is joined on the bandstand by legendary jazz pianist Monty Alexander, conductor Ilan Volkov and music historian Dr Hannah French for a special celebrating the 150th birthday of Proms co-founder Sir Henry Wood. YolanDa Brown explores Wood’s legacy and Tom Service takes another maestro for a musical chat in an Austin Maestro – this time it is Heritage Orchestra chief conductor Jules Buckley.
