Those Brits!

The ‘Proms’ began in 1895 with the BBC supporting and broadcasting them from 1927. The ‘Last Night of the Proms’ is a rather boisterous and patriotic event attracting tens of thousands both inside and outside the hall and with plenty of flag waving and patriotic music. Among the music is ‘Land of Hope and Glory’ which is set to the ‘trio’ theme of Edward Elgar’s Pomp and Circumstance Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1. So here, in all it’s delightful craziness and fun is the performance from 2012. Sit back and enjoy!!
