An untrained audience member is to be given the rare opportunity to conduct a full orchestra at the Royal Albert Hall, as part of a Parkinson’s charity concert.

The lucky gig-goer will be chosen at random during the Symfunny No.2 concert and be charged with leading a band of some of the most acclaimed professional musicians from across the UK, as well as a massed choir of some 250 singers, at the historic venue.

They will join a star-studded line-up that includes The Who’s Pete Townshend, Mrs Brown’s Boys star Agnes Brown, classical singer Aled Jones and host for the night Jason Manford.
