Kong Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 On the first night of the Proms the first item played in a packed Albert Hall was the Marseillaise. Brill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mint Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 Oh, I missed that!I switched on rather late tonight as there wasn't anything I particularly wanted to hear though I understood from OH that I'd missed a very good mezzo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Judith Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Yes, we saw it live (ie on the BBC ..) no announcement, just started playing, with the tricolour projecteed onto the organ console. Very impressive, quietly triumphal yet understated, exceptionally well played. The Promers loved it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
