The John Wilson Orchestra records 'Gershwin in Hollywood', Royal Albert Hall

[@rosella1919]

My father adored George Gershwin’s music so I grew up listening to it. I still adore it at the grand old age of 71. I just wish my father was still alive to hear John Wilson’s fabulous band.

I can always make time to listen to John Wilson and his orchestra.

My wife and I are in our early 80's. We grew up listening to this music. I just discovered your orchestra on KZbin, and we are in awe of what you have accomplished in recreating the music of the MGM era. Kudos to you and your orchestra for bringing smiles of delight to us. it is so very much appreciated. We pray you keep up what you do so very well. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Really nice to discover a relatively young man with such fine taste and passion for great music.

Louise Dearman...what a voice!

Gershwin is as great as any composer a century or two before. John Wilson is brilliant and wise at embracing this man. I am delighted that Russian groups are adoring Gershwin, one of their native, exported sons and they say "I could tell...I knew he was one of us". Jazz was banned in the Soviet Union for decades and now the true Russians get to play their own son come home. John Wilson is similarly a Russo-American at heart by loving George and doing his work such a fine turn.

It is so amazing that John Wilson is restoring all that wonderful music from MGM.

[@drewbear1969]

6:25 And that's what I appreciate so much about John Wilson, he doesn't treat any of this music as simply an American novelty.

[@pianoafterdark]

Amazing, simply AMAZING!!!!!

[@domenicolaganara8817]

[@hectorj.blanco1706]

[@CDB8939]

Please can we have the same again from the BBC Proms this 13th August and again in December at The South Bank. DVD's would be GREAT

[@ianmcnab1208]

George Gershwin a DVD of the 2016 proms with the John Wilson orchestra... Please.

[@evanreichard2906]

I have been a follower of the John Wilson Orchestra as the orchestrations bring fond remembrances of the tunes of the”40’s”. The musicians appear to be nearly constant with minor changes in placement. May I be advised of the name of the violinist seated behind the principal violin.?

[@silviaromero3428]

Nosotras conocemos toda esta música!!..

[@heloisaroberto201]

By The way, why Don´t you come around in Brazil for a show like this one ?

[@checkmate545]

John, you are the Clark Kent of composers because you wave that baton just like a superhero and boy, do the band follow your every move :-)

[@williammasters6156]

All my hats go off to John Wilson and his orchestra. Is there an American equivalent?

[@CDB8939]

Promenade concerts had existed in London's pleasure gardens since the mid 18th century, and indoor proms became a feature of 19th century musical life in London from 1838.

[@akimych23]

my bad english( what did he say about 4 songs by Gershwin at the very beggining? Anybody, plzz

[@anthonysutcliffe]

He said he was a man who wrote 4 songs first thing in the morning, to get the bad ones out of his system. Hope that helps!

[@imonthebox1148]

It's a shame that Ira Gershwin isn't mentioned. He wrote the words to George's melodies.

[@grumpydwarf167]

Looks like it must casual Friday.....

[@michaelhuck]

there are T W O Gershwins, George and Ira.

[@janiekcarney5482]

This is better than the original due to better recording equipment.

[@enricortachamorro]

Mr. Wilson: Great Britain Isn't isolated actually :There's a túnel in the Channel. Please schedule concert at Barcelona as son as possible.You'll bé warmer welcomed as you could Imagine never. Meanwhile we remain yours faithfully.Best regards

[@Thursdaym2]

Are you related to Jean Chamorro of Barcelona by any chance.

[@enricortachamorro]

@@Thursdaym2 don't think so. CHAMORRO is the family name of my mother. The chamorro name is euskadi origin name, but my mother was born in madrid. Even so, it would be my pleasure to meet you anytime to come to Bcn

[@aresee8208]

Even though they have vocalists, it seems they are ignoring the lyricists who wrote the words

[@MrDaiseymay]

I've seen most of Johns shows on tour, in several venues, but I must say, that the sound balance between orchestra and singer's was not good. Frankly, i'd rather just hear the orchestra AND, with less of the jazzy stuff. But they are the best in the World--no mistake.

[@Thursdaym2]

Less of the jazzy stuff? Sorry, you sound a bit of a square. I'm 80 and still cool!

[@glennveale4309]

He's a geordie pet. Hard to understand....x
