I am completely FLABBERGASTED by the performances of the orchestra and all the singers. I am so happy to have discovered the Proms.
Me too
Julian Ovenden singing "Younger Than Springtime" is the stand-out for me.
He brings it, always.
I keep coming back to his video concerts. He conducts with such zest and happiness. Its fun to watch him. He's like a kid in a candy shop. I hope he continues for many years to come.
Ditto !!! You've hit it on the head: "He's like a kid in a candy shop."

Imagine a time when we could all breathe the same air....wonder how long before we see this again? Thank goodness for UA-cam.
Love John Wilson, just been listening to Henry Mancini, etc wonderful thank you, you tube
@@peterost3471 Mr. Henry Mancini, another legend. Good taste.
I'm with you! ☺❤🙏
@@peterost3471 yes,wonderful!
John's Orchestra and singers knock it right out of the park
This orchestra sounds OBSCENELY good! I just can't get enough of it!!
how wonderful it is to see a young conductor who not only loves the music, is a technical genius....but has a smile on his face!
This guy is just a kid. How does a kid know so much, so well. What a guy. His enthusiasm for this stuff runneth over. And, does he have a brother, to go? What a cute guy-kid, just swinging that baton. We are so blessed to see an Orchestra playing to the orchestra.Thanks to everyone who made this possible for us to see. Won't see this everyday....again soon.
@@JackMason-oq8lfThis is what passion and flow look like. I enjoy watching him as much as any of the performers. That authentic smile that we wait for and then swoon over. The music is in him and he loves his orchestra.
And wears proper white tie suit.
Just when I thought that I was familiar with every Broadway musical the Proms pulls one or two out of its hat that I was unaware of. The Proms are always great. Thank you.
Well you just incriminated yourself didn't you? Are you an American and the Brits did a Broadway musical you are unfamiliar with, sir? That is PATHETIC!!!!!!!!! ua-cam.com/video/yanMOkF6SMc/v-deo.html
The Proms are started to go a bit PC now Simon,very sad.But that's the corrosive influence of the BBC.

Among the best concerts I’ve ever heard in my life. This orchestra is amazing , perfect timing, no mistakes of any kind. Wow 😲...
And Sierra Boggess is an angel with a soprano voice
the best performance and best Christine of original, the live performance, and film ever!
go Sierra...
If you haven’t already, make sure you watch the 2010 Rogers and Hammerstein concert, incredible.
Couldn't agree more! 🎶🎶🎶🎶🎶
I Agree entirely
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, John Wilson is one of the best to ever do it!
John Wilson visibly enjoying conducting as much as the audience is entertained by the brilliant performance of the orchestra and singers.
We agree for Norfolk. Keep em coming
I can't see and hear enough of John Wilson's orchestra and certainly agree the only smiling conductor , obviously enjoying himself every time we see him .
The old Musicals so enjoyable . The best singers too. He has to be the best conductor of our time . BRILLIANT !!!
Wonderful to see and hear such an orchestra , singers and audience in a world before we all went mad.
The conductor is so handsome and having such a good time. The orchestra is wonderful!
This concert has been one of those great events that, sadly, happen only once in a life.
I am much entertained by the way John Wilson conducts. He is a dancing, smiling Conductor, having fun while doing it. And he has the good looks too which matches with his style. Thank you John Wilson & your orchestra! Thank you BBC!
The first time I have had feelings while watching on a computer screen, akin to being there live and in person. There is a spirit here that transcends the limitations of broadcast. and yes, we get to see the little inflections of the conductor that are so meaningful that the live audience can't see. Thank you cameras for giving us that wonderful insight!
So when l travel in Newyork with Cake Brearu teach me manage every thing which state in there ?
Call a lawyer what can you do I love you give a holler and hate me what can you do what can you do I love you curfew
Well said, nothing short of fabulous!
Those BBC guys really know how to put up a fabulous production. Looked like they had a dozen cameras.
Listening and watching John Wilson & the orchestra he directs on BBC Proms from Royal Albert Hall & other venues is a true delight. And using You Tube, like Joe Namath says, it's all free!
What makes John Wilson stand out (and above from all other conductors) is his genuine enjoyment and belief in the niche that he has established - BrAVO
but they ain't a niche, yes he's good at this, but search him out they can play anything, and he's a lovely man.
I have never heard anything better than this.. This is THE ULTIMATE GATHERING OF INDIVIDUAL STARS.. Im in HEAVEN.
try the other BBC Proms! I agree! I went to these at the Royal Albert Hall in 19661hen i was living working in London, from australia. So thrilled to find these on You tube!
particularly the Oklahoma Prom!
I can't describe how happy this show made me feel. It's so wonderful. They selected many unknown songs too. Loved it. Jhb, South Africa.
I think John Wilson should take himself and that fabulous band and chorus on tour so that more people could realize his brilliance!
What do you say, John?
John really enjoyed The Slaughter On Tenth Avenue! His expressions are amazing and endearing. Love ya, John!
Even the first violin player almost came off his seat 👏🏻😁
Isn't it wonderful, exceptional, to see and hear and orchestra where it feels as if the entire ensemble enjoys the music they are playing, how they are playing it, and the conductor who is leading them? You rarely hear a major symphony orchestra where the players are so dedicated to playing at their best. It isn't perfection for perfection's sake so much as precision and professionalism in the English tradition. John Wilson is responsible not only for the lavish arrangements, but for a spirit that imbues the orchestra and chorus. A marvel.
Absolute Class, Genius, such talent from everybody involved,... composers, arrangers, performers. They knew exactly what they were doing and the legacy lives on. They don't make 'em like that no more .... the emotional response on my part comes partly from the fact that this was the music my parents grew up with and danced to... it is ingrained in the family.
Oh how I miss such glorious music and superstar performers. The orchestra makes me joyous and nostalgic all at once. Why can't the world stop the hate and prejudice and just listen to beautiful genius like these, people who make it fun to be alive. BRAVO!😁😍😘
As the late, great Norm Macdonald said, "It's good to be alive."
I wish I had an answer to your question. For me, people are people, no matter who or what they worship, their skin color, sexual orientation, or other qualities that so many people use as benchmarks for their judgment. I think it's a shame that the arts are so despised today because they speak directly to the humanity we seem to be losing at an alarming rate. I think all we can do is try to be decent people, and perhaps others will model that behavior and learn tolerance and kindness.
I agree
It's a spiritual trip to Eden
Bruce R … well … it was …
I just love hearing Mr John Wilson and his superb orchestra, they bring out the best of the greatest music and lyrics ever composed, the orchestra brings the whole world of music to life, the arrangements are just FANTASTIC and played with Such energy, enthusiasm, quality and sound, the Soloists and the supporting singers the Maida Vale Singers are SUPERB.
To me, the best kind ever!
It is funny because all musics he perform has a smell of tom and jerry which I love!!! God bless
The combination of Anna-Jane Casey and John Wilson conducting the Orchestra turned "Don't Rain On My Parade" (1:38:16) into a spectacular production. John's faithful attention to songs' arrangements and his enthusiastic devotion make a big difference in the program's delights.

This John Wilson is FABULOUS. His guest singers are incredible. I'm glad Seth is a part of this edition of the BBC Proms.

How can you not feel joy and happiness listening to and watching THIS????
Tap your troubles away - so well performed. The unison tapping was a joy to behold, and they didn't seem at all thrown by the audience members they met on their way on-stage.
What a truly feel-good show - watching/listening after a whole year of isolation, April 2021.
The BEST rendition of the Lusty month of May I've ever heard in all my 80 years of life!
What about Julie Andrews in The original 1960 castKay Luise Cook ?
What can you say about the magic of this conductor and his orchestra?, This is sublime music of the highest order. I love, love, love this!.
Kudos to all the participants, including the audience.
FINALLY this has been released to the public. I had tried to get a copy from the BBC for years, and kept getting dead ends, even to purchase it. It's so great to finally be able to hear it again.
The John Wilson Orchestra concerts were Proms highlights for several years, bringing together top London string players with top Big Band players, rounding them out to make a complete orchestra of amazing talent, a body that really shone under Wilson's direction (just watch the players faces to see how much they enjoyed working together). Add to that a range of brilliant vocal performers and a memorable concert was inevitable. These ranged through concerts mainly like this but also including an orchestral concert of music from films (NOT including Star Wars or modern block-buster scores) to a complete and brilliant fully-performed staging of "Kiss Me Kate" and also of "Oklahoma:!". But now? - by the time it's possible to assemble large enough audiences to resume having concerts like these, will Wilson and the BBC be in a position to again assemble the performers like these, or is it an era, an era too short (2009-2019), that will be more than fondly remembered by those who had the privilege to be there (or who, like me, can continue to enjoy watching repeats from high-quality off-air recordings - only the first, as far as I'm aware, being released for sale by the BBC.) [In the details above you will find the Balcony Scene from "West Side Story" listed, but it doesn't appear in the list showing the time of occurrence for each number and it's missing from this list. The scene had to be cut by the BBC to fit the 2hr broadcast time slot.]
Love watching this guy conduct. He is so graceful in his movements and he is totally involved with his Orchestra, his facial expressions shows this . Thankyou for posting this.
Love this watch it every year never disappoints
❤️❤️❤️
When the orch plays “They love’ from Funny Face. I get covered in goosebumps.. ❤️.
I just adore this music by this fabulous orchestra and John wilson. It helps me whenever I need to feel better mentally and emotionally. It us just so valuable to me.
Robbie Hagberg what's the movie 🍿 you send friendly's you want to call me when you get a chance can you send me a seat for the lights down low I didn't get a great day to be out of this house please let me just a it's been doing it in the number my
The John Wilson Prom specials are annual highlights, presenting great music with superb musicianship. For me, this is my favourite, with a very wide variety of music, Anna Jane Casey out-singing Streisand in "Don't Rain on my Parade", and a finale that tops them all (helped again by Ms Casey, an amazing performer).
Believe that perky little red head is John's wife.
@@636363toad She's married to Graham MacDuff.
Wow amazing artistry by each and every one! What a thrill being there...a 10 star show!
I love how joyful the performers and orchestra look in this amazing concert, in fact any of these Wilson concerts!
Absolutely loved this “Proms” show.......
When I first saw this (on tv) I loved it. It's still stunning.
I love the John Wilson orchestra .Can't get over the wonderful music from the older musicals .It's like a breath of fresh air during the stay at home covid days .Real cold in Edmonton to day . Helen Richards Feb.5 2021
Brrrr..
Pokkjnn.
Fabulous music and the performance of Old Man River brought a tear to my eye.
John Wilson for me anytime!!!Best ensemble of talents and joy! Genius and el duende!
Wonderful show. And the featured artists were brilliant. So much feeling and expression in their performances. This is the way music should be. Loved it.
What a fantastic show with all performers such a great way to be entertained thank you John wilson
Just brilliant playing and singing. This was a pleasure from start to finish. I wish the John Wilson orchestra would do a U.S. tour.
He doesn't need to in my book! Here they all are right in front of me, surrounding me!
We are aren't ready for something this good in the U.S., Taylor Swift is more our speed!!
All of it! Each and every musician, singer or dancer enjoyed every second! Mr Wilson you have some kind of Magic! Thank you!
Fantastic. The John Wilson Orchestra is wonderful. Thank you all
Such an amazing concert from every aspect!!! First time i watch a conductor enjoying so much!! The choir was amazing, the orchestra and of course the singers!!! Thank you for posting this video and thank God for having people like John Wilson who give us performances like this!!!
What an incredible performance of Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals that I have loved so very much. Thank you.
So many songs I grew up listening to my dad sing. He sang every day.
I've been to a couple of John's concerts with RLPO in Liverpool, I see a couple of their orchestra members on here , best orchestra in the world
what a guy John is he chats with audience fabulous memories with my daddy born 1933 and loved John's concerts. RIP DAD AND MUM xxxx
@WM R Hugs to you, WM!
🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤭😘
Isn't this just the best music you ever heard..john Wilson a genius..wow ole man river fantastic 👏
John Wilson Orchestra, you are medicine that one can buy without a prescription #OTC. Love you very, very much ❤
John Wilson Orchestra is safe and effective for use by the general public without seeking treatment by a health professional.
Especially recommended when feeling lonely during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Wonderful I enjoyed every minute of the music. Thank you John Wilson orchestra and soloists.
In the Ocean, there are Whales and Sharks are swiming jump up and down is like music symphony orchestra at last end of first song.
I just love every beat, very movement, every tune, made by the singers, dancers, instrumentalists, in this episode BBC Proms 2012 , that I can't help but thank John Wilson for bringing back memories of songs loved by my parents ...and me when I was growing up ...a million thanks to you...God bless you !
Did you catch that little smile on Wilson's face? If you notice he loves up tempo music with that sweeping excellent orchestra of his. Thanks John Wilson love your style!
Your right about his little grin... He revels in it, what a genius he is, He keeps class alive
Totally amazing concert! Wow. So grateful to be able to hear and see this. Thank you, UA-cam!
Please post more John Wilson concerts. Cant get enough of his music. Such a wonderful orchestra and shows. thanks

Agree most heartedly
@@briancope864 what planet are you from¿
The finale is incredible!!!
How I wish we could hear these astonishing and astounding musical concerts again. Under the expert direction of maestro John Wilson, this concert brought so much joy, love, peace and symphonic warmth to my heart!
I would like to recognize and acknowledge the principal performers who mesmerized the audience in the Royal Albert Hall during this magnificent performance with their outstanding vocal gifts, and talents!
Of course, the Chorus performed in an outstanding, supportive manner.
I could listen to this concert again and again!
Thank you so much Director John Wilson for bringing so much musical sensational delight to the world of music!
“I could have listened all night.”
I love the way he introduces the orchestra at the end. That is so damn respectful and ALWAYS appreciated by the musicians!
That was fucking fantastic. Thank you, John Wilson...and all the wonderful soloists, chorus, and orchestra.
His arrangement of "SLAUGHTER..." is so alive and tawdry. I was born in '55 and found a much poorer recording when I was 9 or 10. But that was a signpost of my musical tastes. Thanks for this.
We were in the Albert Hall for this concert - it was an even more exciting experience than the video. I have never experienced anything like the explosion of applause and shouts of delight when “Mame” finished - it must have blown all the volume controls in the BBC sound mixing panels. When the world seems full of hatred I turn to this video and remember what glorious things people can achieve when they work together.
Ahhh! REAL music - gorgeous arrangements, Sumptuous orchestra, wonderful singing. John Wilson sure knows how to give us all an amazing treat with fabulous songs from legendary composers and lyricists. Now, if only I can get me a ticket to one of these!!!
SIMPLY WONDERFULL PERFORMANCE !!!
I LOVE ENGLAND AND UNITED STATES, "MOTHER AND SON"NATIONS !!! 🇬🇧🇺🇸😍
Spectacular ❤🎉
I was feeling down when I found this--thank you SO much! The energy and talent are simply grand!
I am constantly amazed at the talent of Seth McFarland. He made his fame doing impressions for well known cartoons but the man can sing and he carries himself on stage as though it were his living room....everything Seth does appears natural. There are talented people for whom talent was natural. Dean Martin was known to never rehearse...everyone else rehearsed but dean showed up sang his songs...did his skit and left to play golf. Judy Garland was like that too.
Yeah Seth MacFarlane of Family Guy
I am not -- I mean, yeah he is talented, duh. Does he have the copyright or patent on talent? NO! You wan't to see talent? Here! Here is your talent! He performs TROUBLE like an amateur, like a local amateur group version or the Shakespeare League of Pacoima, you get it? Not THAT talented!! Oh no!
@@RichardJosephSeymourMrSeymour BBY
@@RichardJosephSeymourMrSeymour Youre just jealous of him because you are a talentless putz .
Yes indeed,how the hell can he rattle off 'Youv'e got trouble right here in River City' it must have a million lyrics.I have difficulty remembering my wifes birthday.
Wonderful Music,Wonderful Memories Of Those Wonderful Films and Shows ,Thank You BBC
Bravo orchestra, on the Funny Face Overture! Well done!
No hay nada mejor que John Wilson, dirigiendo tan magnífica orquesta. Bravo!!!!
They thought 'Mame' was the show stopper, and it truly could have been, it was so good. But oh no, John Wilson had an even better finish in mind, and did everyone deliver. Just marvellous!
I just swoon in my chair as I listen to these wonderful singers. Thanks to UA-cam for so many wonderful moments and things.

my pleasure.
Un maravilloso gran musical que me ha parecido una auténtica obra de arte.
My mother in law loves the whole orchestra!
Ah! I love the “Coney Island Ballet” piece and JW Orchestra knocked it out of the park! I hope they do a concert version of “On the Town” someday, like they did for “Oklahoma” and “Kiss Me Kate”. And they did that wonderful duet from “Porgy and Bess”! Hittin’ all the feels!
-- Only fabulous, spectacular, phenomenal, and awesome.
Wonderful to hear this Prom in full, even if it was recorded back in the era of 3D. Classics never age tho.
Good music never goes out of style##!!!
Anna Jane Casey - what a wonderful voice.
My favorite was ol man river i once sang that in high school in a production of shoe boat i played joe
No hay mejores interpretaciones, que las que dirige John Wilson, es un gran director muy metido en su trabajo, es ¡ magnífico!
MARAVILHOSO !!!!!!" Créme de la Créme".Os musicais norte-americanos são insuperáveis e com essa plêiade de músicos e essa regência impecável, fica melhor ainda.
Every December a trip to Leeds to see this fabulous orchestra , came out buzzing . So missed

This is a great review of Broadway musicals. Many of the songs are familiar, but "Bess You Is My Woman" from PORGY AND BESS was such a part of my adolescence (I grew up listening to the OST) that this rendition moved me to tears!
it is only lately that i've come to know this bbc proms. thanks to covid-19 and the lockdown that goes with it. if not for these, i wouldn't have heard and watched sierra boggess and julian ovenden. they are indeed a joy to hear, such magic. my all-time favorite now, sierra and julian. please do forgive me, josh and laura, you two may now step aside.
Oh wow wow I so enjoyed this tonight. Wonderful soloists, chorus, orchestra. It really lifted my spirits. Thank you so much John & BBC for putting this on UA-cam
