In Concert presenter, Jo Whiley, says: “As the presenter of In Concert it’s been an absolute thrill to watch some incredible performances by the hugest of music legends in the tiniest of intimate venues.

“But there are many more that I’ve not yet seen and that is the joy of In Concert 50,” she adds. “Nowhere but the BBC has such a unique archive of music performances from some of the most important artists of the 20th and 21st centuries.”
