    The Proms

    Not what we usually expect at the Proms, and I wonder how some traditional Prom fans felt about it!

    I have to confess I hadn't even heard of Jacob Collier.

    Watched two young ladies and two young men playing on two pianos, it was amazing.

      That sounds fantastic, Plant. There are some very talented people about.

        Sorry Gem, not my kind of music at all.
        Sometimes I forget to like posts,but that doesn't mean I don't like them.

          More like a pop concert. Even if he is considered very talented I’m not sure the Proms is the right place to showcase this musical style.

            He didn't even have a good voice, not very enjoyable.

              Ladies - I agree. I don't think he had a great voice, and I know things have to change and develop, but this isn't the type of music I'd look for at the Proms - more a smoky basement in a Jazz cellar!

              On the other hand, Plant's pianists playing 2 pianos sounds lovely - I'm trying to find a link.

                        Plant - I can't find it at the moment either. But I'll have another go when I've got a bit more time. Thanks for trying.
