0:02:58 > 0:03:02And we wish, once again, to thank Belfast City Council

0:03:02 > 0:03:05for their support in staging the whole event.

0:03:10 > 0:03:13of Titanic Belfast buildings behind us,

0:03:13 > 0:03:18we simply had to come up with an equally dazzling musical line-up.

0:03:21 > 0:03:23We have a fantastic line-up for you.

0:03:52 > 0:03:55APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:07:22 > 0:07:25APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:07:31 > 0:07:36Martynas, a critic in the Times said that you had "shown your extreme

0:07:36 > 0:07:40"artistry on an instrument that used to be thought of as a squeeze-box".

0:07:40 > 0:07:45This is your great passion in life, to change that whole idea, isn't it?

0:07:45 > 0:07:46Exactly as you said.

0:07:46 > 0:07:48So, how are you doing that?

0:07:48 > 0:07:50Well, I'm doing as simple as that,

0:07:50 > 0:07:52playing in Belfast for so many people.

0:07:52 > 0:07:55It's been a great pleasure and I hope you all enjoyed it.

0:07:55 > 0:07:57Oh, we very much did.

0:07:57 > 0:08:00APPLAUSE

0:08:00 > 0:08:03It's probably the first time many people have heard

0:08:03 > 0:08:06Vivaldi on the accordion. Is there anything you wouldn't tackle?

0:08:06 > 0:08:12I think it's great to notify that it's possible to play on accordion

0:08:12 > 0:08:16Bach, Vivaldi, Scarlatti, even Mozart, and even Lady Gaga.

0:08:16 > 0:08:18Wahey!

0:08:18 > 0:08:21Wonderful music tonight, Martynas. Thank you ever so much.

0:08:21 > 0:08:23APPLAUSE

0:08:25 > 0:08:28German-born composer Hans Zimmer is widely

0:08:28 > 0:08:31regarded as one of Hollywood's leading musical talents.

0:08:31 > 0:08:35Having first enjoyed success in the world of pop music,

0:08:35 > 0:08:38with The Buggles, we all remember that world-wide hit,

0:08:38 > 0:08:40Video Killed The Radio Star.

0:08:40 > 0:08:44More recently he joined forces with Steven Spielberg and Tom Hanks

0:08:44 > 0:08:47to score for their television series, The Pacific.

0:08:47 > 0:08:51And from that, here is the very emotive and haunting theme.

0:11:58 > 0:12:00APPLAUSE

0:12:07 > 0:12:11Ladies and gentlemen, it was Victor Borge who once said

0:12:11 > 0:12:14that when an operatic soprano sang her head off

0:12:14 > 0:12:16it generally improved her appearance.

0:12:16 > 0:12:19I don't think even that old curmudgeon would say that

0:12:19 > 0:12:21about our next guest.

0:12:21 > 0:12:24She is a hugely successful artist

0:12:24 > 0:12:27who has made her mark right across the musical canon.

0:12:27 > 0:12:28Ladies and gentlemen,

0:12:28 > 0:12:33the biggest welcome you can muster for Katherine Jenkins!

0:12:33 > 0:12:35APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:12:47 > 0:12:50SHE SINGS IN FRENCH

0:15:48 > 0:15:50APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:15:55 > 0:16:00- Oh, Katherine! Oh, Katherine! That was wonderful!- Thank you so much.

0:16:00 > 0:16:02Listen, it wasn't always going to be this way

0:16:02 > 0:16:05- cos when you left the Royal Academy you were a teaching singer...- Yes.

0:16:05 > 0:16:07- A singing teacher, should I say.- Yes.

0:16:07 > 0:16:10When did you decide that this was going to be your life?

0:16:10 > 0:16:12I always wanted to be a singer since I was four years old.

0:16:12 > 0:16:16My mum taught me a song called Going Down The Garden To Eat Worms

0:16:16 > 0:16:19and that was my very first little performance in public.

0:16:19 > 0:16:21# Nobody likes to...

0:16:21 > 0:16:23# Going down the garden to eat worms... #

0:16:23 > 0:16:26- I won't sing that for you now.- My first duet with Katherine Jenkins.

0:16:26 > 0:16:27THEY LAUGH

0:16:27 > 0:16:29Erm, so I always knew that's what I wanted to do.

0:16:29 > 0:16:32I just didn't know if I had the chance to really be a singer.

0:16:32 > 0:16:34Your voice is going to get better and better and better,

0:16:34 > 0:16:36so what do you want to do in the future?

0:16:36 > 0:16:38Erm, I think I've been very lucky so far.

0:16:38 > 0:16:41It's nearly ten years since my first album came out

0:16:41 > 0:16:45and I kind of feel like I've just had so many wonderful opportunities.

0:16:45 > 0:16:48To think of anything else is being a little bit greedy,

0:16:48 > 0:16:50so if this continues and I just get to sing

0:16:50 > 0:16:53and I get to come back to Belfast I'll be really happy.

0:16:53 > 0:16:55- Oh, yes, so would we. - CHEERING

0:16:55 > 0:16:57We shall hear more from you later, Katherine,

0:16:57 > 0:17:00but for now let me escort you off.

0:17:00 > 0:17:03APPLAUSE AND CHEERING

0:17:05 > 0:17:07With me now, backstage, I'm delighted to say...

0:17:07 > 0:17:09We're very lucky to be in the presence actually

0:17:09 > 0:17:12of a Golden Globe nominated...the one and only Brian Byrne, composer.

0:17:12 > 0:17:15You've composed the music for the next piece, which is

0:17:15 > 0:17:16very special indeed.

0:17:16 > 0:17:18Tell me about Heartbeat Of Home.

0:17:18 > 0:17:22Well, I was approached three years ago by John and Moya, who were

0:17:22 > 0:17:24the producers for Riverdance

0:17:24 > 0:17:26and they were very exited with this new idea they had,

0:17:26 > 0:17:31mixing Latin music, Afro, Cuban, Caribbean

0:17:31 > 0:17:32with Irish, Scottish music

0:17:32 > 0:17:35and it's incredible what these dancers can do.

0:17:35 > 0:17:37They're so athletic, moving on from Riverdance, 20 years later,

0:17:37 > 0:17:39their bodies, they're like athletes.

0:17:39 > 0:17:42So, really, if they're doing their job right

0:17:42 > 0:17:44and I'm doing my job right, the percussion

0:17:44 > 0:17:47and their feet will blend together and with the voices, you know,

0:17:47 > 0:17:49we have this hopefully new sound.

0:17:49 > 0:17:52And I can't wait, I can't wait to get out there and do it.

0:17:52 > 0:17:55Neither can we. We'd better let you get back out there. All right.

0:17:55 > 0:17:59Prepare yourselves for a dynamic mix of cultural rhythms

0:17:59 > 0:18:00to knock your socks off!

0:18:00 > 0:18:03It is, ladies and gentlemen, our great pleasure to bring you

0:18:31 > 0:18:38# To all the strength and peace you gave

0:18:38 > 0:18:44# Tomorrow's harbour opens out her arms

0:18:44 > 0:18:50# Shines a watchtower on the wave

0:18:50 > 0:18:56# And you're the flame of every hope

0:18:56 > 0:19:02# That ever faced into the tide

0:19:04 > 0:19:10# Yesterday and now

0:19:10 > 0:19:15# Dreaming is to pursue

0:19:51 > 0:19:56# Long on the seas

0:19:56 > 0:20:03# Of hungry, friendless life

0:20:04 > 0:20:08# Searching for a home

0:20:08 > 0:20:16# And the glow of world comes last

0:20:16 > 0:20:23# Hold strong in the storm

0:20:23 > 0:20:28# Guiding constant friend

0:20:28 > 0:20:31# When I was lost upon

0:20:31 > 0:20:35# The lonesome seas

0:20:35 > 0:20:42# Oh, lead me safe to land

0:20:42 > 0:20:48# Light the way to shore

0:31:51 > 0:31:52Great. All in good voice.

0:31:52 > 0:31:57It's funny. I mean, I was thinking, I remember sitting down at my piano,

0:31:57 > 0:32:00just me and the piano, trying to come up with the idea of Ireland's Call.

0:32:00 > 0:32:03And that's the great excitement of being a songwriter.

0:32:03 > 0:32:06- You can never really visualise where it's going to lead.- Yes.

0:32:06 > 0:32:08Starting off as a germ of an idea
