Hi everyone. Sorry - this may not be geographically available where you live. In the UK, every summer there are Promenade concerts at the Royal Albert Hall. Some are transmitted live on the BBC TV service live. Many more are transmitted as audio only live via the BBC FM/DAB distribution and online Sounds app. This particular concert featured a solo concert on the organ by Anna Lapwood (I recommend searching information about her, because I'm unlikely to do her justice). The sound quality is extraordinary. It's live with only a light-touch of production, so the atmospherics are really rich. If you've only ever heard her play on TikTok or YouTube, you will enjoy the bandwidth and dynamics, which are largely unspoilt.
The concert features:
