Concert Information

Join the Â鶹ԼÅÄ Concert Orchestra, conductor Richard Balcombe and presenter Ken Bruce as we wish a very happy 80th birthday to one of the country’s greatest songwriters, Tony Hatch.

A former band member of David Bowie’s, Tony Hatch went on to become a top producer and songwriter. He worked with the likes of Chubby Checker, Pat Boone, The Searchers, Adam Faith, Sasha Distel, Bruce Forsyth, Scott Walker and of course, Petula Clark. For Petula he wrote hits including Call Me, Don’t Sleep in the Subway and Downtown. Tony also composed some of our best-loved television themes including Crossroads, Emmerdale and Neighbours.

For this special edition of Â鶹ԼÅÄ Radio 2’s Friday Night Is Music Night, recorded at Alexandra Palace Theatre – a venue steeped in television history – we’ll hear a selection of Tony’s favourite themes and songs from his long career.
