Performance NotesCelebrating the music of a modern New York, the Heritage Orchestra and conductor Jules Buckley present their take on the sound of NYC today.

With guest artists drawn from across the Big Apple, this Late Night Prom features new music from some of the city’s rising stars, plus classic tracks by established acts that have changed the city’s soundscape. Expect anything from pagan-gospel and disco-punk to feminist rap or DIY indie … the panoply of musical talent that continues to emanate from New York means anything could happen.

There will be no interval.
Broadcast on BBC Four on Friday 10 August.
