      Also, if people are throwing their knickers/boxers at Jonas Kaufmann while he sings about the UK’s naval hegemony, you are satisfying most elements of the British nation.

      Then came identity politics and a looming culture war. Jamie Barton sang RB and quickly hoisted a gay rights flag at the end. The BBC commentator said: “Jamie joins the flag waving spirit!”.

      Throw in a pandemic and a government throwing bones to its Red Wall, and here we are, desperate to prove we aren’t slaves and never ever will be.

      The BBC Proms now responds with the official line-up of the Last Night. "The Proms will reinvent the Last Night in this extraordinary year so that it respects the traditions and spirit of the event whilst adapting to very different circumstances"

      'The programme will include a new arrangement by Errollyn Wallen of Hubert Parry’s Jerusalem alongside new orchestral versions of Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1 “Land of Hope and Glory” (arr. Anne Dudley) and Rule Britannia! as part of the Sea Songs, as Henry Wood did in 1905'

      - Since the night features composers Andrea Torrodi as well as Wallen and Dudley. Plus conductor Dalia Stasevska and soloists Golda Schultz and (newly annnounced) violinist Lisa Batiashvili, with a soothing, who-can-possibly-object Lark Ascending.

      The wording around the presentation of Rule Britannia! strongly suggests it will not be sung by a soloist, as - see earlier in my thread - was actually the case for a number of years at the Proms in the Noughties under @NickRKenyon

      The good news is that the Daily Mail can now ignore classical music again (until the next time Andrea Bocelli outrages more of his fans again by accidentally singing in a real opera at them)

      This seems kind of unfair. The complaining holiday goers were sold a marquee concert and found themselves instead at an opera where the headliner had a minor role. They're people like cleaners and retired electricians, this must have been a big outlay for them.

          Its still funny though 🤣 at the time I did a bit of reading around it seems they only do 1 or 2 performances over 3 or 4 days if its bad weather they simply do it the next night. This catches the coach trippers out as the next night they are in Florence 😆
