This is August 31, 2024 and I am watching the end of this program with tears in my eyes as I marvel how spectacular this show was. My husband and I lived in London from 2004 to 2015 and I have always regretted not attending at least one Prom before we headed home to the US. We went to a broadway play on the West End at least once a year and watched the Proms on TV, but watching this makes me so nostalgic for London and the wonderful plays we were lucky to attend. All the actors, singers, and dancers were fantastic and Maestro Wilson a genius and a darling. Thank you to whomever made this possible.
Me too! Now live in the North of England lived in London for 18 years.
It’s September 2024 and I’m grateful as always to Mr Wilson. He understands the significance of remembering this great music. Thank you so much for this video. The world needs more of this indeed.
Truly, there isn't an orchestra anywhere on this planet that does this stuff like the John Wilson Orchestra. Absolute authenticity, that old Hollywood colour, unabashaedly big and joyous.
Could not agree more have seen them live numerous times , sublime
This is John's passion and specialty.
I hum and sing along with the music wonderully played by a great orchestra and sung by a fantastic choir. Easy to listen to. It's someting I've never stopped lovng in my 91 years.
Gershwin’s music is timeless! Too bad he died so young! But, he left us such beautiful music that is timeless as the stars.
This music will be living from here till 2080. And sure much more years 👌👌👌🙏🙏🙏🙏

Prima
Happier than ever that I found this orchestra. You just don't get it any bettter. Played with love. Great solos, too.
Absolutely LOVE John Wilson and his orchestra ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Fully agree - when, oh when is JW going to get his Knighthood???
It is real Hollywood glamour. Well done, John! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Wow, this orchestra sounds so lush! What phenomenal musicians!
Medley of Gershwin tunes (amazing! bravooooooooo!!!) 0:16 Swanee 0:50 Somebody loves me 1:50 Fascinating rhythm 2:40 Embraceable you 4:20 Lady be good 4:59 The man I love 6:59 I've got rhythm (?) Of thee I sing 7:36 Liza 7:50 Rhapsody in Blue 9:40 Strike up the band 10:20 Rhapsody in Blue (last but not least, Mr Wilson, the conductor is very handsome with that smile at 2:25 - I hope he won't be offended with my friendly remark :))
(It was an impression of 'I know I am doing my job with confidence and I know it is good' and 'I enjoy what I am doing now' = a true professional)
So British, so dignified, so charming - worth to listen again and again.
Thanks a lot!
@William Nahnsen Thank you very much! Checked, corrected.
Yup...that's what I sang
It's stunning how Wilson puts all pieces together to produce ❤️ beautiful music.
The elegance of immortal music that will never fade....
John Wilson at his best! Such class and the classiest music is an unbeatable combination!
This is the reason for me not to die yet. I'm 88 and THIS is the heaven. I don't want to leave it, I want to stay here, in heaven.
Hopefully you're still here enjoying heaven on earth, that was amazing
Yes, of course, I'm here still enjoying heaven on earth, enjoying myself, enjoying all people of good will and MUSIC!
so am I Jim brown
@@siolaaduob I hope your gentle soul enjoys music for many many more years.
This warms a place inside me.
@@Hominid00inthemirrow Yes I am. Thank you so much. All the best to you.
MAGNIFICENT performance. Talk about the genuine 1930's orchestral sound - - Wow! The Gershwin brothers are jumping in their graves.
Don't know how much each member of this orchestra is getting paid, but IT ISN'T ENOUGH!!
As it's in Britain,not very much.
Ññññ
You’re right. My dad was a musician and I felt the same way when he worked
10 minutes and 37 seconds of heaven... Thanks to all the people who made this possible.
Oh that string section is always so lush and lovely!
Rhapsody in Blue is the greatest piece of music ever written The John Wilson Orchestra are sublime to see them live what a night
It is certainly the most original and the most easily recognized as wholly a product of American Jazz.
The best 10 minutes and 37 seconds on UA-cam!
Hear hear!
One of the best orchestras around, they bring back some really beautiful music
The two best orchestras on the planet,the MGM studio orchestra of the late 40s to late 50s and The John Wilson Orchestra.
This music makes me alive it makes me feel so wonderful inside I I listen to these people that play and I know how much they sacrifice the play as well as they do and it just wonderful it's so wonderful and I wish that people would teach their children this kind of music because it could live forever and it will thank you George thank you Ira thank you John Wilson wonderful Orchestra people are just terrific and I enjoy it so much I want to share it with everyone God bless all of you
Non pensavo che la cosiddetta "musica leggera" potesse raggiungere tali elevatissimi livelli di perfezione:Dire bravo è troppo poco,vorrei sentirli dal vivo ma ho 92 anni ,rimane un sogno!!
This is one great Orchestra. As a musician myself I love this kind of music.
Genio total inolvidable
A glorious Gershwin tribute. Wonderful transitions reveal yet another gem to marvel at. Thank you, maestro, for a banquet of delicious melody.
Beautiful music delivered by a great orchestra and conductor. I love to watch John Wilson conducting!
One of the best orchestras ever!!
THEE
NAME A BETTER ONE IN THIS GENRE--THEY CONTAIN THE CREAM OF SYMPHONY ORCHS; AND BEST JAZZ PLAYERS FROM AROUND THE WORLD.
I offer my post-humous thanks to Papa and Mama Gershwin for producing two of the most talented 20th-century musical artists for the world's enjoyment and having made the USA proud.
Dad went to heaven a month ago at 95, but he gave his appreciation of this music to me.
An absolute pleasure to listen to this orchestra and style of music.....
Bravi!Molto bello!La grande musica di George Gershwin!
How could have George Gershwin known that John Wilson would arrive on this planet . It's seems that he wrote his music for him. How blessed are we.
get real
Gina M surely there.. and John Cooper .... keep dancing.
IF ONLY This were TOTALLY true, Mister Gershwin probably have written even MORE music on the "level" of Rhapsody!!...... Mister Wilson has SURELY shown the WORLD how Beautiful these Classics can be PLAYED to the TOP !!
Yes, Charles, if ONLY he KNEW Mr. Wilson was on his way, he SURELY would have chosen not to DIE in his thirties!!
@@Marcel_Audubon Marcel, don't be so ready to throw cold water on other people's heartfelt appreciation for John Wilson. You are obviously a young person who may not understand that older generations are effusive with their compliments.
Wow that was nice! Playing Rhapsody in blue without a piano solo saves time.
How many people in this world can play that solo? Not too many.
Now you take the hardest guitar solo (hell take your pick) and tons of guys can play the licks but this piano solo here in Rhapsody in Blue is out of your damn mind intense. Frank Chacksfields orchestras piano player plays this song perfect. Hearing Frank Chacksfields version makes you very critical of other attempts.
Oh Johnny your a genius!! Love to see your concert in Sydney pls..
La ejecución de Gershwin es una perfección insuperable…
La orquesta de John Wilson lo mas sublime y espiritual no pierde el horizonte en esta adversidad felicitaciones
Makes me long for the big band era when we went dancing to these beautifull melodies ❤
I have watched this over and over and over. Superb!
A pleasure to hear this wonderful music
Thank you, whenever I listen to George Gershwin I surely move to another dimension.
I know Manuel’s comment is over (2) years old but like Gershwin’s music ...... both are timeless. 🎶🎶🎶
Such beautiful music!!
Thank you Dad.....RIP 💓
At 93 I grew up with my head attached to a radio. Gershwin has always been my favorite. I may forget what I did yrsterday,but I remember iras clever lyrics. Thank you! The orchestrations are delicious
I've been listening all afternoon to John Wilson Orchestra tracks from the BBC Proms over the years. What treasures this man and this orchestra are. Thank you for uploading.
No me canso de verlo dirigir esa maravillosa orquesta.
and what did you do in the morning
This is really great music! Bravo!!!
teardrops commin this my music from my joung life, pa pay me dance shool.....omg thank jou
FABULOUS GERSHWIN
A True Masterpiece!!! Beautiful tribute !!!!!!
Nearly 11 minutes of George Gershwin music brightens up every day.:)
Georgi Mihailov )
I was there in the arena...as usual the hall was packed to the rafters for John Wilson...goosebumps !
How fortunate!
My kind of music,John Wilson the best
Bravo from the states. Incredible.
This is what they call music. Notes written by very talented people, It's amazing some of the stuff out there today, culture stuff is called music. It don't take any talent to jump around a stage and swear.
Perfect combination of Gershwin´s music and John Wilson´s orchestra. Great
all the classics in one ,thankyou, timeless ,I will miss this when I die , im enjoying it now and my life,
Magnificent performance. My father played the violin for the San Francisco Bay Area Philharmonic symphony, in California. I learned to appreciate great music.
Simply awesome. I hope I get to see the John Wilson Orchestra perform before I die. So talented.
He does perform in the USA Rick if that's where you reside.
SIMPLY SUPERBLY BEAUTIFUL WITHOUT RESERVATIONS...!!!!!!!!
Musica celestial.
Carlos Jorge Martínez si!
This conductor is one of the few that I have seen to wear 100% correctly fitting White Tie. That makes me respect him even more.
Fantastic have watched all the proms on utube great stuff.
Great job and thank you very much John Wilson and his wonderful Orchestra
Fabulous orchestra!!!!!♥️
That lavish sound...wow..it doesn't get any better than this!
a unique hand -picked orchestra, with star musicians from around the world , symphonic, jazz.and dance.
John Wilson had a vision and he followed through. Now we are the beneficiaries. To Maestro Wilson: you may be a Brit but you have many American admirers.
One of the best orchestral jazz arrangements I have ever heard. What could they possibly have in store for next year? Can't wait!
redspeeder98 and qq
Oklahoma. Semi Staged, 2 performances.
WOW wonderful I am in love with this orchestra.
This is the embodiment of the 1920's in music.....spectacular
Bravo and Bravisimo... PERFECT... Divine... PERFECT... IMMORTAL...
It is amazing how well the camera person is able to focus in on all the soloists at the time they are playing. That must take some coordination and planning. Great job. I like seeing the various soloists as they are playing their parts.
To do this requires someone reading the score and also paying attention at rehearsals. A great job done here, for certain.
I watched this for nth time but i can't get enough. Like i really enjoy the music 💚
I just recently discovered this orchestra once I saw one instagram reel of them performing scott bradley's music for tom and jerry medley and i just fell inlove with their performances.
Wonderful-I listen with my cordless head phones while I work. I wonder who ws the "thumbs-down"?
What more can you say, Gershwin and Wilson, what a match, none better, excellent music and superb musicians
Great performers👏 I am very very happy♪
Perdoem-me a fraqueza, mas não consigo deixar de chorar, quando ouço essa maravilha, com a apoteótica Rhapsody in blue. Perdoem-me: sou fraco!...
Não, você não é fraco, esta é a música dos Deuses.
Superb arrangement. You can tell that the musicians immersed themselves in this rich fabric of genius music composition.
Beautiful.
I think that relatively modern orchestral composers such as Gershwin,Cole Porter and Rodger’s and Hammerstein are every bit as good as the classical ones.it becomes very obvious when played by The John Wilson orchestra.
FEEL SO GOOD
Doesn't get much better than this!
Hi John Wilson’s musicians are specular . They contribute excellent music beautifully 🎉👍♥️
This very same place 44 years ago, (July 4 1975) The 200 celebration, New York Phil, conducting and playing the piano Leonard Bernstain. What a memory.
Glorious music how I love it just beautiful lots of memories
Beautiful performance. A sound very close to the great Hollywood Orchestra's of the past. The first violinist played his solos magnificently, and in the style of the great players of the past. He is the best concert maestro I have heard in this orchestra. Heifetzien.
The Concertmaster is John Mills
Sublime, utterly mesmerising.
This orchestra is fantastic!!!!
Es invalorable lo que agrega a unos seres humanos que no disfruten en la actualidad de esas melodías que llenan el corazón de sentimientos y nuestros recuerdos de otras épocas idas.
Brilliant!!!!
This conductor is extraordinary. I am a musician and I love his way of conducting an orchestra. It is efficient and perfectly mastered the scores of each instrument panel. Great!
PROBABLY BECAUSE HE SCORED EVERY INSTRUMENT, USING THE ORIGINAL ARRANGEMENTS. ALTHOUGH, AS WITH MGM 'S ARCHIVE, IT WAS DESTROYED DELIBERATELY. SO JOHN RE-WROTE EVERY SINGLE NOTE DOWN , BY LISTENING TO THE FILMS. IT TOOK HIM YEARS .
Watch “An American in Paris “ with all Gershwin’s music!
Philip Croft He’s a young gifted maestro and I appreciate his conducting of Gershwin’s music, but you don’t have to capitalize every word in anger! Gershwin’s music was written long ago and was preserved as well. Saying some outlandish in your post makes you a “naughty boy “! Now we’re even.
演奏してる方たちが心底楽しそうなのがほんと良い！一度でいいから行ってみてみたいなぁ…
The camera work, isolating who is playing next, is superb. The twerps who try inserting ads and honestly think we are interested when they've just interrupted the music in mid beat, are not so smart.
Welcome to youtube
Maravilloso!!!
Divino!!!
I wonder what J.S. Bach, Mozart, Beethoven and others would have thought of this great orchestra and this kind of music. I bet they would be in wonder and amazed.
So beautiful
La Grande Classe..merveilleux....ce chef a la Musique en Lui...Quel BONHEUR....
Absolutamente magistral interpretación..!!
