Suitable for General AudiencesLive from the Royal Albert Hall Clive Anderson introduces a Prom celebrating 75 years of classic MGM film musicals. John Wilson and his hand-picked Orchestra celebrate with songs from unforgettable movie classics, including The Wizard of Oz, Meet Me in St Louis, Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, High Society, Gigi and Singin' in the Rain. Amazingly, although all the original orchestral parts were lost when the studio destroyed its music library, Wilson has succeeded in reconstructing the scores by painstakingly transcribing each soundtrack by ear. The diverse line-up includes Curtis Stigers and Seth MacFarlane (vocalist and star of Family Guy).
