Nice to see your positive view. Love from the UK always ❤🇬🇧
The huge crowd are assembled in Hyde Park which is literally across the road from The Royal Albert Hall, in London, UK.
You will see lots of flag waving, mostly British flags but also flags from all around the world. This is patriotism as it should be, it makes us feel good without making everyone else feel bad. It is Britain's party but everyone is invited.
Very well said!
I agree up to a point... but when footballs involved it's a different story 😄
@@lewisjacques5875 Well you have a point although I somehow suspect that there isn't a very large crossover between Prommers and football hooligans
@@The_Butler_Did_It true 👍
@@lewisjacques5875 Really? Then you are wrong. All the countries football supporters stop hating each other and support their country's team when they're playing. If we had a unified UK team I'm certain it would be the same.
It’s strange but the history of Britain is not as bad as some people say! As a country we have made a lot of good in the world 🙏🇬🇧🏴
Sargon of Akkad has a very good video out on YT called "The British Crusade Against Slavery." It gives facts and figures and dates
@@annemariefleming interesting. I wonder if it was your tip-off that recommended several reaction vids, around a month after your comment, to respond to Sargon’s video?
I’ve watched three now, after one was recommended to me by the YT algorithms, and the latest one I saw was from this channel and was easily the most profound in the reaction expressed!
If it was you, then thank you. Along with thanks to Rukia here (Bored Ruky) for such a genuine response to a highly contested subject matter.
I really do think the world be a much better place for everyone under British rule,but not today sadly😞
Fun fact. The Royal Albert Hall used to have the worst acoustics in the UK because the sound would go up into the enormous dome and come back down all Jumbled up. So they commissioned specialist acoustic people to fix the problem. Sometimes you can catch a glimpse of these giant discs hanging from the dome which were scientifically designed to reflect the sound back in an organised way. It is now one one the best venues for sound in the world. Us brits don't shout, hang flags on every building or puff our chests out which gives the world the impression that we're not very patriotic. But we really are. We just do it in a dignified manner. This is how we show our pride. ✌️♥️🇬🇧
There's a video on you tube showing experts fixing the roof on the Royal Albert Hall. It's interesting - if you're interested!
Praise British ingenuity, and may God help us rediscover that which we were made to feel shame for!
Shame ? Never.
The BBC Proms (short for promenade, musical concert), is an eight week event celebrating classical music. The last night is the culmination of those eight weeks and has a distinctly party feel to it. I went to The Proms a few times with my dad and if we didn't go we'd watch it on tv together. He died nearly 27 years ago and I can't quite bear to watch it without him, but we always had a brilliant time, so lots of lovely memories.
thank you for explaining, truly appreciate it :)
The proms always reminds me of my father. It's the only time I remember him watching television was when the proms was on.
He never got to see it live but would listen to it on the radio or watch it on TV.
Always makes me feel close to him when I watch it.
It’s not all classical though. For example, there are semi-theatrical events specifically for children designed around television themes, such a Doctor Who.
In Denmark we all Watch it and you Can always find our flag Dannebrog red with a White cross.
Great that you went. Probably need a mortgage to go watch now. Your Dad could still be watching, so still watch and enjoy.
I was there in the hall for this. About 7,000 people in the hall, 40,000 in the park (Hyde Park) outside, around 20,000 each at parks in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Maybe 10 milion on TV, millions more on radio and on TV and streamng services around the world.The last night is the final concert in a series of around 75 which run from mid July to mid September every year. Most are "just" very good classical (and other genres) music concerts. The concerts aim to bring classical music and other forms of msic to a wider audience, to include as many people, musicians or not, as possibble. The audience in the hall is incredibly knowledgeable.The last night is the"end of term party", where we all have fun . The second half of the concert is dominated by pieces which have been played for decades (the concerts have run for around 125 years). The British are deeply patriotic,. but we take it as read and very seldom let it show.This is one of the few times that we do. Even then, we laugh at ourselves. A Chinese lady I knew once said to me that the only time she was frightened in England was the last night of the proms, because it showed what the English were capable of if they were propery organized. (The audience in the hall also raise around £100,00 per year for musical charities.)
I'm english also British we all stand together united we maybe an island like Ireland but we are all united im proud to be British im 68 keep Britain British i am proud ❤ to fly the British flag this is our tradition our way of life so don't touch our heritage ❤united we stand united we fall and all my love and respects to WINSTON CHURCHILL against all odds we were not defeated we did not surrender we was all united team work this is a small country which took on a large country and more and won we are all proud ❤ of what we have accomplished and we have still kept our heritage and traditions GOD SAVE THE KING AND GOD SAVE BRITAIN ❤❤❤❤❤
This video just shows how diverse Britain is,
Hard not to be when you're surrounded by sea.
“That part of the world” that brought freedom, parliamentary democracy and culture at one time to over one-fourth of the world’s surface.
The Last Night of the Proms is so popular - its a sort of party - that the BBC put up giant screens in Parks around the UK so people everywhere can gather together and sing with those in the Hall. All the concerts during the season (eight weeks - beginning mid July and ending about second week in September) are televised Nationally on BBCtv2 and on Radio Three, so everyone can see or listen to these concerts if they choose.. Concerts cover classical, jazz, show music, modern and popular et al. Top Artists, Orchestras, Conductors are invited from around the World, but the heaviest workload is taken on by the BBC Orchestras and Choirs. The Last Night is mainly patriotic music. The one you heard tonight was written by the English composer, Sir Edward Elgar, and is from his Pomp and Circumstance Marches. The first part of the concert often starts with a number of British sea shanties. The venue is The Royal Albert Hall, gifted to the nation by Queen Victoria in 1871, in memory of her much beloved husband, Prince Albert. His statue is outside, opposite the Entrance.
and the BBC tried to ban our patriotic songs from the last night of the proms a few years ago but so many people protested the BBC relented. the BBC will drop these songs if you take your eyes off them.
Not all Prom concerts are televised but all are broadcast on Radio 3
@@pjmoseley243 No they didn't. They proposed to do something different because no audience could be there because of covid restrictions.
@@pjmoseley243 Lets keep our beady eyes on them then! I am already on guard!
@@duncanmacpherson2013 The ones I have wanted to watch have always been on BBCtv2. Have I just been lucky?
Brilliant reaction. I vow to thee my country is another British patriotic song. Much respect Birmingham UK 🇬🇧✌️
I'm Aussie and will forever love and defend the country that stands for liberty and freedom.
And just to explain what else you were seeing. The Last Night of The Proms - which is what you were reacting to, consists of two halves. The first is reasonably serious and is a selection of classical music as all the other nights performances are. The second half is traditional and contains lots of ausience participation - as you saw - and is a medly of traditional Britisn songs.
The outdoor scenes are due to the fact that the porgramme is shown live on big screens across the UK, including Hyde Park in London, Manchester, Leeds, Bristol, Glasgow, Cardiff, Edinborough, and Belfast.
The Proms are actually broadcast globally via the BBC and are extremely highly regarded by musicians the world over. They have to be invited to play and often consider it the highlight of their careers.
Young Lady this is England. "Land of the Free".We do not show our patritosism too off them but on the last night we are the greatest.
This is Britain
The important thing to me is that the audience is comprised of people from many other free, democratic nations that have had links with or who we have supported to fight tyranny and oppression Many have based their governments on the British democratic example. Our history is not perfect but we have fought for over 250yrs and continue to fight, to ensure that every modern person, anywhere in the world has self determination and freedom from slavery or persecution. This song celebrates all of these efforts.
Yea you carry on believing that
@@foxontherun6082 what has your nation done?
@@foxontherun6082 Watch Sargon of Akkad's FACTUAL video about the British crusade AGAINST SLAVERY...if you really want to know the TRUTH instead of Liberal propaganda.
How sad, in hindsight, that the efforts of our ancestors were used as a Trojan horse to dismantle the people and culture of the nation that first sought to raise these principles in the world in the first place.
Global revolution through a dismantling of national values…
@@foxontherun6082 Prove this statement wrong.
It was the conductors last Prom that was why the "He is a Jolly Good Fellow" was sung.
The first PROMS was on 10 August 1895 in Queens Hall,London, playing a wide variety of symphonies.
USA was founded on 4 July 1776. It doesn't have a long history to compete.
Great Reaction. The "Proms" are an eight-week summer season of daily orchestral classical music concerts and other events held annually, predominantly in the Royal Albert Hall in central London. The Proms were founded in 1895, so 128 years ago:)
You MUST see "Jerusalem" from the same year 2012 and "Rule Britannia" from The 2009 Proms which are all on TH-cam.
ENJOY...
It's the end of season for the Proms (last night) so quite a celebration, everyone is invited as you can see from the different flags. Land of Hope & Glory is one of the traditional songs the audience enjoy singing to, the words are meaningful also" I vow to thee, my Country" words make me cry.
'I vow to thee, my country'.
It is both an internal and external live broadcast. Huge screens are erected in cities up and down the country (Hyde Park London, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Belfast, Cardiff, Liverpool etc) and they attract huge crowds.
I love being a British Citizen!
I love the Last night of the Proms, unfortunately I’ve never been. However, I did go to a similar last night held in a large Marquee on the River Mersey in Liverpool. They used to have a series of concerts given mostly by the Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and finished with the traditional songs. We got some spare seats last minute one year through a worker at the Philharmonic Hall and it was great.
The inventor of the German Enigma machine was an Elgar fan and loved the Enigma Variations.
The people outside were in Hyde Park and there were 45,000 mostly all singing Land of Hope and Glory.
It's British patriotism at its best
British history in brief.
Britain created the modern world. The first modern democracy (1688), the first to create an organisation devoted solely to science and the first to industrialise.
And brought slavery to an end (at great cost to the British).
The Proms are concerts which are part of a big music festival. “Proms” is short for “Promenade Concerts”. The Proms are organized by the BBC, so they are called the “BBC Proms”. They take place in the Royal Albert Hall, in London from mid-July to mid-September every year.
More recently the odd Prom concert have been performed in other venues.
@@philipmorgan9006 Is that 'The Proms in the Park'. I saw a clip from a Prom in Belfast, near the slipway of the Titanic. (Not quite the right name). But I wondered if it was part of the main Proms or a regional concert. It was a great setting.
Young Lady this has been going on for over 100 years. There is an eight week series of classical music concerts finishing with the last night of thhe Proms. We the peoples of the UK especially those from England are not normaly allowed to show our patriotishm, The second half of the last night of the proms allows us English folks to show our patriotism..
Harking back to better days! I still get goose bumps to pomp and ceremony! But alas we're becoming the first, first world 3rd world country!
If you understood the groupings of 1st to 3rd world countries you'd realise how ridiculous your comment was 🙄 (allies = 1st world, communist bloc = 2nd world, everyone else = 3rd world)
@@majpanik No, once upon a time we built the world. These days its not safe to walk the streets. Everything is dirty. The police are useless. We're descending into hell!
@@oldboy1690 🙄 1) a 3rd world country wasn't called so because it was poor or run down, a common mistake from people have no clue where the terms originate (so Britain can't be 3rd world no matter how much of a mess it becomes). 2) you've obviously not travelled out of your own town of you think Britain is that bad compared to the rest of the world. If you're that eager to return to "the good old days" then good luck to you because we were not all living in gold houses then either.
It happens every year - and every year it is just as popular.
The Proms are held every year this is the last night which is always like this
People come from all over the world, its one of the biggest and longest series of concerts in the world, they also do themed nights from time to time during the season Show Tunes, Movies Themes, Star Wars? Jazz but largely classical music (many of which are regulars like Sibelius' Finlandia)
Land of Hope and Glory comes from a time when Britain "ruled the world" and felt like we deserved Respect, but its a great song, Rule Britannia is a similar theme
wow! thank you for letting me know :)
@@BoredRuky , The song Rule Britannia has a word sung incorrectly , people sing " Rule Britannia , Britannia rules the waves " when it should be" rule the waves " , the difference in meaning is that. " rules " implies no one else can use it ( the sea ) but " rule " means no matter what the sea does we will always sail it come what may.
There are plenty of videos about the Proms on TH-cam plus videos tours about The Royal Albert Hall were it's held and the park Hyde Park is literally just across the road outside . from it
When British show there patriotism it's usually something spectacular
These songs were written when Britain had largest empire in the world. Elgar wrote this beautiful song at that time. It’s a fantastic song and Proms are great occasion but should be seen in context.
It is broadcast to the world every year. Many millions view it.
You should watch the Last Night at the Proms when they do 'Jerusalem' and 'Rule Britannia'. Also watch the 2022 Remembrance Service with Luke Evans (the actor) singing 'I Vow To Thee My Country'.
Short for "Promenade Concert" . It's the end of about 8 weeks of concerts, mostly in the Royal Albert Hall. "land of Hope and Glory" is one of the traditional songs and music that are part of the Last Night of the Proms, celebrated not only in the Albert Hall, but in other venues in the country.
England's unofficial national anthem
The Proms is classical music for a couple of weeks and this is the last night which is fun. This is at the Royal Albert Hall in London every year. They can't fit everyone in the hall so each part of the Uk has a screens out side so they can join in.
It runs for eight weeks not two
Land of hope and glory, mother of the free,
How shall we extol thee, who are born of thee?
Wider still and wider shall thy bounds be set.
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet.
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet.
..............
Land of hope and glory, mother of the free,
How shall we extol thee, who are born of thee?
Wider still and wider shall thy bounds be set.
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet.
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet.
It gets better at the proms. Rule Britannia, Britannia rules the waves, is even more overpowering.
"Jerusalem" is another, about trying to re-create the Christian heaven in England, is popular too.
The British do have Patriotism, but do not need to force it on the rest of the world.
It is for us to enjoy, and welcome other nations in their own patriotism too if the countless different flags at the Albert Hall mean anything.
Glad you liked the concert Ruky. Oh no, you will never get anything like this in any other country, only in Great Britain.
The proms started over 100 years ago in 1895 and the BBC took over in 1927. The whole event has grown and grown and is a British tradition now. Land of Hope and Glory is considered by most to be the alternative national anthem:
"Land of hope and glory, mother of the free,
How shall we extol thee, who are born of thee?
Wider still and wider shall thy bounds be set.
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet.
God, who made thee mighty, make thee mightier yet."
Fabulous and makes me so proud to be a Brit!!!!
The proms is brilliant and the last night of the proms is more like a big party and if you look at more recent ones the footage shows you the parks where people go and it usually tells you where each park is coming from like Hide Park, Belfast, Wales and I think Glasgow???? You might also like our service of remembrance in November usually the first Sunday after 11th November.
British people aren't as openly patriotic as say Americans or a number of other countries however it is there and it comes out on occasions such as this. All countries have done bad things however i believe that Britain for all it's mistakes has done more good than any other country in the last 400 years and i include America in that. Many will disagree and some will hate my comment but i believe it to be true whatever the woke revisionists think.
Well I agree 100%..👍🏴🇬🇧
In 1905 Elgar received a Doctorate of Music from Yale. At the ceremony the New Haven Symphony played several Elgar works, including this. It was a big success and Yale began using the tune at its graduations. The other Ivy League universities began doing likewise, then other schools and colleges which is how it became associated with graduations in the USA.
Elgar was never happy with singing to the 1st Pomp & Circumstance March - he wrote the song as a separate piece, with different introductory music (but the same 'big tune'). But no-one else cared.
Thank you Ting Ting. This is Sparta !
A potted history:
The Promenade Concerts are a season of classical music concerts founded in 1895 as a 'music for the masses' concept, with cheap tickets costing only sixpence (today's equivalent around £2.50) for people to stand or walk (promenade = walk) as well as more expensive seats.
Henry Wood, the co-founder, was 26 when he conducted the first Prom at the Queen's Hall concert hall and continued as principal conductor until his death in 1944. In 1941 the Queen's Hall was destroyed by German bombs and the Proms moved to the Royal Albert Hall.
The BBC, founded in 1922, developed four channels (there are many more now): the Home Service (news, talks etc.) the Light Programme (entertainment), the Third Programme (mainly classical music), and the World Service (for listeners in other countries). Promenade Concerts were first broadcast by the BBC in 1927.
The Proms have a tradition of inviting national and international orchestras and singers to perform old and new classical music and have also included musicals and film scores.
The performers at the Last Night of the Proms are the BBC Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, with an invited operatic soloist. The second half of the concert mostly follows a programme introduced by Sir Henry Wood of patriotic British music including Wood's "Fantasia on British Sea Songs" (including Rule, Britannia), Elgar's "Pomp and Circumstance March no.1" (Land of Hope and Glory), Parry's "Jerusalem", and of course the National Anthem.
Tickets for the Last Night are like gold, so in 1996 the BBC introduced "Proms in the Park" - now many more people can join in the occasion at various sites in the UK.
The proms were cancelled last year out of respect for the passing of our queen, Queen Elizabeth II.
The 2023 seasons proms will start up again running from 14th July to 9th September.
The proms started in 1901 and though at first it was off and on again over the years, since the second world war, last year was the only time the last night at the proms was cancelled.
Elgar was a supporter of Wolverhampton Wanderers football club he traveled from his home to watch wolves play
You should watch Nimrod, Jerusalem and Rule Britannia.
I feel so pleased that you enjoyed the proms.Please continue to watch again.
You should also watch Rule Britanna from the last night of the proms
It's the one night of the year when the British really get patriotic. But it's an inclusive patriotism where you see the flags of many nations who are all welcome even if they don't like us very much. The music and lyrics typify ideals for all mankind.
This should be the National Anthem
agreed!
That part of the world? We're still here, you know?
The "bouncing" is traditional, it symbolises a marching army.
The Last Night of the Proms is filled with patriotic music. Try “ Rule Britannia “ “ I Vow To Thee My Country “ “ Jerusalem “ all from the Proms…..Patriotism at it’s finest!
Please check out Rule Britaina and Jerusalem, Last Night of Proms
Try finding the videos , one where they also sing , Jerusalem and another, I vow to thee my country !! By the way your national anthem originates from England, ✔ check it out!!!!
Oh I didnt know and i'll check it out thank you :)
Thanks for sharing this…..unfortunately this event has become less patriotic as the Woke brigade are trying to cancel a number of the tunes (including this one) as they see it as a show of British Imperialism. It’s a real shame as it’s so uplifting and makes me very proud to be British 😊

The important thing to me is that the audience is comprised of people from many other free, democratic nations that have had links with or who we have supported to fight tyranny and oppression. Many have based their governments on the British democratic example. Our history is not perfect but we have fought for over 900yrs, William the Conqueror banned slavery in and out of England in 1087. His laws, freed slaves brought to Britain when America was not a nation. Britain, UK, continues to fight, to ensure that every modern person, anywhere in the world has self determination and freedom from slavery or persecution. This song celebrates all of these Victorian efforts and achievements..
Do you remember when after the brexit vote loads of people who actually go to this had EU flags? We’re they woke too?
@@richarddavy-smith6626 whats this woke talk about facts not childish memes
This is the way British people show their patriotism
Hi here is some history , Britain was in the Philippines for a year to stop Germany taking it .
ITS NOT JUST FOR BRITS, IF YOU LOOK YOU CAN SEE Flags FROM ALL OVER, AND ITS EVERY YEAR AND FIR DECADES ITS BEEN GOIN MIGHT EVEN BE 100 YEARS,. CHEERS FLOWER
128 years
Check out Rule Britannia and Jerusalem
And people say the Brits are unpatriotic
No, you can not get this in the USA. The Uk invented Theatre you do not know what you're talking about!
not anymore land of dope and gory, went right down hill after 1972
Brits being a bit British. Just for an evening.
Everyone welcome along.
Try googling BBC proms and Dr who ❤
You won't get anything like this in the US (only a pale imitation at best)
Very true
I dont get any impression that you ( to use your words ) "..are slow."
We ended slavery
You have a steep learning curve.
BBC ?
Last nigh is let your hair down night
The British annual flag waving event
It is…….and I f’king love it ❤️
We do our patriotism quietly, but its there 😁
We also love that so many of those who came to Britain to be a part of it, also love to celebrate both their familial, cultural and British heritages all together with us as one.❤️
Didn’t they ban or try ban rule brittinia
It's called being patriotic if your not proud of your country and its people then your in big trouble
Boo, Boo, I suppose it's better than that dirge God safe the parasite!
Let the woke have their own music they do not have to listen there is a knob to turn off. WE who love this have our own music this is called freedom you play your and we will listen to what we like fabulous music great to be British love it.
Use Google!!
Do be quiet madam,you’re spoiling it.
Land of Hope and Glory would benefit if it were a bit more apt.Under this government there is now very little glory and hardly any hope.Mother of the free........if that refers to America then itcertainly does not mention systematic racism nor the apparent slavery of capitalism,nor the fact that you can be shot at whim by a "policeman".If it refers to the English parliament, then our freedom is even now under attack by the Tories in their latest measures against democracy.I notifiied my MP just now but I am certain he already knows.We do not have proper proportional representation anyhow and never have had,so that is undemocratic as it always has been and favours the establishment....the old boys network.I rest my case,as they say.
Proportional representation is more democratic (in theory anyway). The downside is that it often fails to produce a strong government capable of making change.
@@oldman1734 Perhaps,if that condition reflects the electorate and its constitution,but thats democracy if so.A concensus would give a working majority.That in turn would reflect an actual rather than an apparent majority.Presently,the strange fact is that more people voted against the Government we have than ever voted for it,and that has happenedly repeatedly in History.Parliament has evolved over the centuries,but that seems to have stopped.The system now needs to change for the better,and I include a long look at the role of the House of Lords
@@col4574. There is a great difference between theory and practice. For example in theory communism must be best. Everyone equal, “From each according to his ability, to each according to his needs.” Sounds great, but it doesn’t work in practice. We all (well 99.99 percent of us) need incentive otherwise why bother.
Similarly proportional representation sounds great, but (as said) it’s much more difficult to get anything done.
god has made thee mighty make thee mightier yet, wider yet and wider our borders shall they grow, sadly now a call to the facists here shame
If you don't even know the words, how can you comment? Simple question.

Unfortunately each year it gets more woke with drunken EU flag bearing hats, so not as patriotic & more emphasis on politics than celebrating music.😢😢😮
