BBC Proms 2020 highlights our pick of the concerts this season

about 5 years in Standard

This year, it certainly won't be the Proms as we know them, with 5,000 people packed into the orbital auditorium of the Albert Hall, sharing their space with fellow-enthusiasts and forging bonds with performers in a way that too rarely happens elsewhere. But so rich is the archive of memorable events built up over the years that the BBC will still be able to offer high-quality programming for all tastes in these exceptional times. Those concerts will be available nightly on BBC Radio 3, with a handful of Sunday evening events broadcast on BBC Four under the banner BBC Proms Classics.
