They said it was one of their most popular shows and they have run it twice a year for many years. Now they have decided not to run it anymore!!!! One of their most POPULAR shows, let that sink in.

Thanks for posting. As a Canadian born in England (I was a war baby) I hold both English and Canadian passports. I worked in London between 2003 - 2010. I have been to Classical Spectacular many times. Brought back memories. Nice to see it back after a hiatus due to covid. If you can't go to the Proms, this is the next best thing.

Thanks Allan. Glad you enjoyed

Had the privilege of seeing the November 2019 performance. Absolutely spectacular and fun.

I'm a peasant from Canada, I would love to see this live lol. Edit: needs more cowbell

Not so sure about the cowbell 😁 No reason why you can’t see it, apart from the airfares and hotel costs 👍

1. Last Night of the Proms 2. Classical Spectacular 3. St. George Day Concert Royal Albert Hall

Can you give advice on best place to stand in the gallery? Is it head on slightly more to the slide so you get closer?

First of all do not comment full of hate and disdain to my message, this is a feeling that I had with some other younger audience members at the Royal Albert hall that night. I am sorry but the 2021 edition had quite a story to tell, if you can read through the music that is. Classical Spectacular used to be a celebration of classical music, not a propaganda tool for "how great Britain will do now it's out of the EU" From the light show to the music it had a very, very clear message. The elderly in the audience were so proud, the younger ones were very uncomfortable as both knew the sub textual messages in this years performance line-up and they both voted in very different directions with, like in the audience, the elderly taking the advantage. Never praise yourself too highly, you can actually hurt yourself more in doing so, our fall might be harder than we think. But the orchestra, choir and soloists were near perfection. I hope next year we can return to normality with the Classical Spectacular.

No hate or disdain but what a sorry outlook you have have on life if that's what you took from the concert. Did you even bother to look at or listen to the entire program. PROGRAMME ORFF O Fortuna from Carmina Burana SAINT-SAËNS Finale from ‘Organ’ Symphony VERDI Chorus of the Hebrew Slaves ROSSINI William Tell Overture STRAUSS Also Sprach Zarathustra STRAUSS Blue Danube Waltz SOUSA Liberty Bell March GRIEG Morning and In the Hall of the Mountain King BIZET Pearl Fishers Duet ROSSINI Largo al Factotum TCHAIKOVSKY Swan Lake Finale HANDEL Zadok the Priest STRAUSS Radetzky March SAINT-SAËNS Dying Swan SIBELIUS Finlandia Land of Hope and Glory Jerusalem Rule, Britannia! Nessun Dorma 1812 OVERTURE with thundering cannons and Indoor Fireworks so out of the entire program you have latched onto I guess 3 pro brexit anti EU tracks which I assume are. Land of Hope and Glory Jerusalem Rule, Britannia! Please don't trouble us with your "right to be offended" narrative.

There is no way it is 4k. Name is misleading

It was shot on a handheld iPhone 11 Pro 4k 60 fps. Clearly you don’t know much about video. Might be worth checking the video spec before letting your belly rumble. At some points I switched to the zoom lens which degrades video quality. iPhones shot in h265 codec and the KZread re-encodes it yet again. It is 100% 4K

Oh dear. So it is as described but it’s still clickbait. You’re moaning about the quality of the 4K now. Sorry I couldn’t drag in a professional grade 4K camera for you. Yet another human being who’s looking to find something to whine about. Do me a favour and take it elsewhere.

Did you bother to look at the KZread settings and select 4K instead of letting KZread Auto select for you ? Incase you have not realised KZread often drop to lower settings when higher resolution is available. It's crisp and sharp on my monitor.
