I'll have to catch it on youtube later (web site won't play here). Who is singing "Rule Britannia!" this year?

Good question, I

Nigel Kennedy and Joyce DiDonato are the star soloists in a programme that picks up sea-faring themes from Bantock and George Lloyd and includes a translatlantic flavour.

Could include Rule Brittania?

p.s, its always better live, arf arf.

Its hopped over to BBC 1 now:

Very Land of Hope and Glory soon; bit of Jerusalem, and we might invade Syria...probably not

Saw that it is on the channel NDR here in Germany and thought let's listen to it (only have a Desktop with a TV card and need the screen for other stuff).

EDIT: NDR shows the whole stuff again directly from BBC at 01:40 Monday morning, more than 4 hours, while today they just show 90 minutes.

Not too impressed with Joyce DiDonato, seems to be warbling all over the place in Rule Brittania. Did better earlier on.
