The World's Greatest Classical Music Festival. The BBC Proms is a classical music festival held every summer at the Royal Albert Hall in London, and in recent years has explored an innovative series of Proms around the UK with concerts in all four nations. Its aim: to bring the best in classical music to the widest possible audience, which remains true to founder-conductor Henry Wood’s original vision in 1895. Whether you are a classical connoisseur or think classical music isn’t for you, there is something for everyone in the eight-week stretch of concerts.
People absolutely love this festival, praising its original, world-class performances and calling it a summer staple. The enthusiasm is a bit scattered, though: while conductor John Wilson and legends like Beethoven and Marvin Gaye get rave reviews, some of the BBC's own orchestras and guest artists like Robert Ames come across as disappointing or flat for a lot of viewers. Still, the overall feeling is overwhelmingly positive, with many saying the Proms live up to its mission of bringing fantastic classical music to everyone.
