There will also be a special medley of well-known CBeebies theme tunes arranged by Daniel Whibley, in addition to two new commissions; Whalesong by Mason Bates, which celebrates the majesty and power of the earth’s largest animal, and blends whale song with a symphonic narrative about a lone whale, and Dolphin Dance by Dominque Le Gendre, inspired by the sea life of St. Lucia.

Conduct, Compose, Perform: a musician’s life – three online talks in partnership with the Royal Philharmonic Society and Martin Randall Travel
This series celebrates our partnership with the Royal Philharmonic Society (RPS). The trio of talks, organised and chaired by the RPS, draws back the curtain on the lives of five of the finest contemporary musicians. We will explore how they are inspiring audiences, casting fresh light on overlooked repertoire and sharing their experience of what it means to be an artist today. Across three conversations, we will be joined by Alice Farnham, one of Britain’s foremost conductors who is changing the face of conducting; composers Dani Howard and James B. Wilson, whose orchestral works are enchanting audiences at the BBC Proms and further afield; and violinist Elena Urioste and pianist Tom Poster – both acclaimed soloists and co-founders of the Kaleidoscope Chamber Collective. They take us behind the scenes, offering fascinating insights into their working lives, their creative passions, and the music that inspires them.
