In August 2009, John Wilson and the John Wilson Orchestra caused a sensation with a celebration of the classic MGM musicals, broadcast live from the BBC Proms at the Royal Albert Hall. The concert played to a packed house and was enjoyed by millions on television. So great was the response that the BBC repeated the broadcast just a few weeks later.

On Sunday 5 December this thrilling concert comes to Nottingham’s Royal Concert Hall, reuniting the original Proms cast, including Sir Thomas Allen, Kim Crisswell and Family Guy’s Seth MacFarlane.

The sumptuous sounds of the MGM Studio Orchestra will be brilliantly recreated by John Wilson and his dazzling 70-piece orchestra. Together they’ll pay tribute to composers George Gershwin, Irving Berlin, Cole Porter, Harry Warren, Jerome Kern, André Previn and the great Hollywood arrangers Conrad Salinger, Johnny Green and Nelson Riddle.

The concert features some of Hollywood’s best-loved music from the MGM musicals, including High Society, Singin’ in the Rain, An American in Paris and The Wizard of Oz. Much of this music will be heard for the first time in its original form in scores newly reconstructed by John Wilson.

You’ll know and love the songs – but wait till you hear them in widescreen!
