The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra invites you to join them for the ultimate British spectacular!
This classical extravaganza will be full of Pomp and Circumstance, celebrating the best of British music, plus many more well-loved classical masterpieces, popular arias and Proms favourites. Led by conductor and presenter John Rigby, the Orchestra will be joined by the supremely talented soprano Elin Manahan Thomas who will perform favourite songs such as I Could Have Danced All Night from My Fair Lady and A Nightingale Sang in Berkley Square.
The Royal Philharmonic Orchestra encourages you to get your Union Jacks ready for what promises to be a world-class performance of the music that you know and love.
