Ultimate Calm
22:15 Thu 27 Aug 2026 Royal Albert Hall

Ultimate Calm has been taking listeners on immersive and reflective journeys through classical and ambient music since the show launched in 2022, with presenters including Ólafur Arnalds, Hania Rani and now Erland Cooper. Airing across BBC Radio 3 and its sister station Radio 3 Unwind, this late-night Prom will include music by Cooper, originally from the Orkney Islands and whose work explores the themes of nature and landscape, along with guest artists, atmospheric soundscapes and electronic elements. A uniquely serene and escapist concert for the night hours.
Broadcast live on BBC Radio 3 and Radio 3 Unwind
