Synopsis

Following the suite from William Walton's score for the film of Henry V, and Percy Grainger's distinctive arrangements of "Molly on the Shore," "Danny Boy," and "Shepherd's Hey," as well as Stanford's "Drake's Drum" from Songs of the Sea, come the traditional selections for the final night: Elgar's Pomp and Circumstance March No. 1, Henry Wood's Fantasia on British Sea Songs, Arne's "Rule, Britannia!," and Parry's "Jerusalem" (orchestrated by Elgar), featuring Benjamin Luxon (baritone).
