MGM Proms

By -

I haven't had the chance to blog my recommendations for this season, but you must catch Saturday's MGM Prom while you can. A fabulous night of reconstructed scores of some classic MGM films, including Singing in the Rain, High Society and many more. The luscious orchestrations by John Wilson (all by just watching watching the films for hours) were performed fantastically by John Wilson and his orchestra.


Catch the whole prom here and see below for an awesome finale.

Enjoy!
