As part of the BBC's coverage of this season's Last Night of the Proms and the associated "proms in the park", violinist Nicola Benedetti will perform at Glasgow's Proms in the Park 2009.
Nicola won the BBC Young Musician of the Year award in 2004 and Young British Classical Performer Award at the 2008 Classical Brits, and now performs across the globe. However, this is definitely a homecoming performance, as she was born in Ayrshire.
"For me, there is no audience quite like a Scottish one, and playing at home is always such a special occasion. The excitement of playing in Scotland, combined with the grand nature of BBC Proms In The Park, will make for an unforgettable evening for me!" she said.
Highlights of all five Proms In The Park concerts are shown as part of BBC One, BBC Two and BBC HD live coverage of the Last Night Of The Proms on Saturday 12th September.
