The Liverpool Songbook

From down on the Docks to the Philharmonic Hall, music is the lifeblood of Liverpool – so much so that we’re officially a UNESCO City of Music. Tonight, they’re shining a spotlight on the artists who were made on Merseyside, opening the Liverpool Songbook and celebrating the iconic tracks that helped put our city on the musical map. With the spectacular Liverpool journalist, author and broadcaster Spencer Leigh as host, star singers from the West End and the full might of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra perform hits from The Coral, Frankie Goes to Hollywood, OMD, Cilla Black, Elvis Costello, Ken Dodd, The Spinners, a little-known band called The Beatles, and many more.
