A Jubilee of Music is a one-off BBC Television entertainment show lasting 75 minutes,[1] broadcast on 31 December 1976 at 10:30pm on BBC1.[2] The show was produced to celebrate the British music successes of the first 25 years of Elizabeth II's reign, on the eve of 1977, the year of her Silver Jubilee. Some non-British artists (notably Val Doonican and Rolf Harris) also took part, performing their British hits. Choreography for The Young Generation was directed by Nigel Lythgoe. Alyn Ainsworth conducted the BBC Concert Orchestra for the live performances.
