Petroc Trelawny begins as new co-host of BBC Radio 3’s In Tune!
After 14 glorious years at the helm of the Breakfast show, Petroc has made the exciting move to the station’s flagship weekday show In Tune, to co-host alongside Katie Derham.
Petroc says: “Sean has stylishly and wittily helmed In Tune for three decades, creating a very special space for musicians to perform and share rich insights into their work and their lives. That artists, singers, conductors and composers so relish appearing on the show is in a big part thanks to Sean’s personality; his long stewardship of the programme has made it a vital place to celebrate many forms of music making. Alongside Katie, I will be working hard to ensure we maintain the rich jewel of a programme he invented.”
Sam Jackson, Controller BBC Radio 3 and BBC Proms, says: “I’m delighted that, after over a decade of early starts, Petroc will be joining Katie to bring his wit, warmth and sparkling rapport to In Tune”.
You can catch Petroc in the In Tune studio today from 5pm on BBC Radio 3 or on BBC Sounds.
