Actor Adrian Scarborough presents a concert on the theme of musical double acts featuring the Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Concert Orchestra, with guests Maria Friedman and Adrian Der Gregorian.

Star crossed lovers Romeo and Juliet, silver screen lovers Bergman and Bogart, Hollywood hoofers Fred and Ginger, cut-throats Sweeney Todd and Mrs Lovatt, crime-solvers Watson and Holmes – these are just some of remarkable musical double acts celebrated in this gala concert recorded at the Royal Festival Hall in London.

Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Concert Orchestra is conducted by Keith Lockhart with singing guests - and real life married couple - Maria Friedman and Adrian Der Gregorian. Presenting tonight’s concert is actor Adrian Scarborough, part of an uneasy double act himself as Villanelle’s handler in the second series of Killing Eve. Tonight, he takes on a more softer tone and reads from the balcony scene of Shakepeare’s tragedy before we hear Tchaikovsky’s classic overture to Romeo and Juliet.

There’s music, too, from Frank Loesser’s Guys and Dolls, Max Steiner’s suite to Casablanca, John Williams music from The Memoirs of a Geisha and David Arnold and Michael Price’s suite to Sherlock, as well as classic hits from the pens of Cole Porter and George Gershwin.

Concert recorded on 11 March 2019 at the Royal Festival Hall. First broadcast on Βι¶ΉΤΌΕΔ Radio 3.
