'''''Music of the Spheres''''' was a short episode of ''[[Doctor Who]]'' which first broadcast in audio form on [[27 July (releases)|27 July]] [[2008 (releases)|2008]] as part of the BBC Proms season, during an event known as ''[[Doctor Who at the Proms (2008)|Doctor Who at the Proms]]''. The Proms concert was initially broadcast on [[radio]], and so the mini-episode was initially only seen by the audience at the [[Royal Albert Hall]]. Although it was possible to view the episode online following the radio broadcast, ''Spheres'' was the only ''Doctor Who'' episode eventually broadcast on [[BBC One]] to have actually had its BBC network debut on [[BBC Radio|Radio 3]]. The Proms concert, and ''Music of the Spheres'', was broadcast on television for the first time on 1 January 2009, some six months after its radio debut.

Thus ''Music of the Spheres'' is the rare case of a live performance, which became an audio story, then became a webcast, and finally became a TV story.

In the version available online, the viewer got to see none of the action from the Royal Albert Hall. Thus, [[David Tennant]] appeared to be spending great lengths of time looking directly into the camera — normally a sure sign that an actor is breaking the fourth wall. Indeed, he ''did'' break the fourth wall — but only the one separating Tennant from the Royal Albert Hall audience. Other versions of the short, such as the one broadcast by [[BBC One]], captured audience reaction, again clarifying that the audience at the ''Proms'' was the only group the Doctor ever intended to interact with.
