The Last night of the proms has become a British institution. What makes it such an insirational occasion is the music that is so beautifully performed by the BBC Symphony Orchestra.
A Full concert hall filled with an audience rousing to Jerusalem is really a sight to behold and one that everyone should experience in their lifetime - indeed some do it every year.
Jerusalem along with others such as, Sailors Hornpipe Rule Britannia and Pomp and Circumstance Make this CD more than a CD; a Patriotic symbol of our nation.If you have never had the chance to attend the Last Night of the proms then i suggest you do. In the meantime - Buy this CD and learn the words!
The last night of the proms is the true home to Jerusalem and as such, many people believe it should replace our current national anthem. enjoy!
