Dame Shirley Bassey will perform with the BBC Concert Orchestra to celebrate 50 years of stardom as one of the highlights of the BBC Electric Proms.
The singer from Cardiff will perform her greatest hits along with tracks from her new album The Performance.
The show at the London Roundhouse on 23 October will be Dame Shirley's only live visual aspect of 2009.
The BBC Electric Proms has made a mark in presenting major stars and fresh talent in an confident concert setting.

Dame Shirley says she's looking forward to revisiting her much loved songbook whilst premiering new work.
"What I'm most looking forward to at the BBC Electric Proms is performing songs from my new album The Performance for the first time it actually will be a particular moment for me."
The gig will be broadcast live on BBC Radio 2.
Smokey Robinson, Dizzee Rascal, Robbie Williams and Doves are among the other highlights of the Electric Proms, which take place in London from 20 to 24 October.
