As part of the preparation for the Centenary concerts, I’ve been having an illuminating time delving into my father’s catalogue to make new arrangements of some of his incredible compositions. I couldn’t bear the thought that we wouldn’t be playing any of it tonight, so I asked many of my father’s students to record from their own homes around the world so we could play for you. Here is a taster of what you will hear when we reschedule these shows!

Sorry for the squiggly video, Youtube had an auto quality booster feature that i did, and it ended up making the video really shaky and all over the place...making it worst and i cant change it back...Some of you said that its recorded from a camera off the computer here in my comments, but it wasnnt. I ripped it straight from my DVD and Youtube's auto enhancer made it all over the place.

I think this should be online... you can't buy it, you can't watch it on the iplayer... bbc is meant to be a public service, if so why can't we watch programs again which we've already paid for?

if the bbc remove it i want my license fee back...

anyway... enjoy it while it's here
