The atmospheric Late Night Proms present a rich seam of music and artists that might not otherwise be heard at the Proms.

There are Proms debuts for Jamie Cullum (26 August, broadcast on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Four the following evening), the Penguin Cafe (8 September) and pioneering Iraqi guitarist and singer Ilham Al Madfai in the first-ever Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 3 World Routes Academy concert (9 August).

Maria JoΓ£o Pires opens the series with a solo Chopin recital (21 July), and there are chances to hear an evening of English and American experimental music from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Scottish Symphony Orchestra with Ilan Volkov and pianist John Tilbury (20 August); Stravinsky from the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Singers and London Sinfonietta (4 August); and arias and duets by Vivaldi and his contemporaries with Ensemble Matheus and Jean-Christophe Spinosi (6 September).

George Benjamin celebrates his 50th-birthday year with the Birmingham Contemporary Music Group (6 August) and spiritual vocal and choral highlights include Arvo Pärt's St John Passion (17 August) and Pergolesi's Stabat Mater (2 September).
