Watch Sydney Philharmonia at the BBC Proms Opening Night

We are looking forward with much anticipation to the BBC Proms Opening Night concert at Royal Albert Hall. The concert is on this Friday (16^th July) at 8pm – Australia is nine hours ahead of England so this makes it 5am(!) here. For those of you that want to experience this exciting event (live or otherwise) there are a couple of options:

BBC Radio 3 is broadcasting all the Proms concerts live, and this can be streamed on the internet.

The concert is being shown in the UK on BBC2, and their website allows you to watch what is currently being shown your computer (again via the internet). If you are not keen to get up at such an early hour the concert will be available for seven days after its initial broadcast.

Go to http://www.bbc.co.uk/proms/2010/broadcasts/ to access both the radio and television services.

If you are keen to find out more details about how the UK tour is going, please visit our blog at http://sydneyphilharmonialondontour2010.blogspot.com/. You will find updates, chorister’s stories and photos.

Enjoy the Proms Opening Night!
