In Tune live from BBC Maida Vale studios with performances from the BBC Symphony Orchestra, Sakari Oramo, BBC Singers, Sofi Jeannin and mezzo-soprano Helen Charlston.

Petroc Trelawny presents In Tune live from BBC Maida Vale Studios in London, marking the end of an era as the BBC prepares to leave this iconic home for its new base at East Bank, Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park. After more than 90 years at Maida Vale, the BBC Symphony Orchestra and BBC Singers take to the stage for a special live performance, joined by conductors Sakari Oramo and Sofi Jeannin, and mezzo-soprano Helen Charlston.
