What a wonderful video you have made! My wife and I have always been anglophiles from here in the States and greatly appreciate what you have accomplished. Thank you so much for providing such a wonderful insight into what this woman and all the others went through. Best of luck!

Connaissez-vous le nom de cet accordéoniste?

Something very special about all your videos - do love them!

The soprano was Emma Prillaman, as credited above. Thanks for watching!

may I ask who the female singer was?

Thank you...history occurred here in these halls and walks! WWII was shortened and thousands of lives saved from the actions of people who worked in these rooms.

Such a treat to be there!

Still favourite

Just a thought - RUclips may not allow the link to be included in your comment, so don't be disappointed if it doesn't appear.

No problem, I'm glad you liked the video!

Nice video Catherine. I hope you don't mind but I've linked it on our page about Stanway House: cooksgreencottage(DOT)com/dog-friendly-cottages-in-gloucestershire/

Very good playing! Lovely balance and sensetive piano accompaniment. Viel Erfolg!

Varvitski and Richmond Park, many thanks on Geoffrey's behalf (as you know, he hasn't joined the virtual world yet) for your appreciation of his talents and selfless dedication to music. I'm so glad you both enjoyed the video!

Beautiful. Thanks for this charming portrait. I spent many a glad hour singing by that piano accompanied by Geoffrey. I was a member of Cantanti Camerati for ten years, 1984 - 1994, and this lovely video brings back very many happy memories. Warwick Harte.

Bellisimo video pintando la musica.Mis mas sinceras felicitaciones por saber trasmitir ARTE.

Great artist! I love watching other artists working .Thank for sharing this video.

Lovely snapshot! Geoffrey is a gifted musician....

thank you , INSCOM USA - regards ...

Awe inspiring ..

Yes, It's the Eurostar train when it headed for Paris from London's Waterloo Station. It's still the same train but now leaves from St Pancras station.

There you are Gerald! Still with beautifull British accent! Ganbatte ! from Y.M. Okinawa Japan

Great video ! cool music, Fast builders !!!

Thankyou so much for watching and responding to Judy's magic.. She was unforgettable, in person as well as on the stage, and she would have loved the idea of 'her' song reaching people across the world, sung as only she could sing it. Long live romance!

Thankyou for watching! Judy was unforgettable. She also toured with Noel Coward during WW II, so had a great insight into his material. I've put her 'A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square', which she was the very first singer to perform, on RUclips too - the soundtrack has subsequently gone out of synch with the visuals, but Judy's quality still shows through. I hope to upload a replacement version of this, her 'signature' song, which lifted everyone's spirits in wartime London.

@Ramanujan88 I remember the reading of that in the Lost Boys documentary, it was so beautifully read, almost too beautiful.

Thankyou - Laura's very talented and she's branching out with her inimitable style. The speed at which she puts together these stunning ensembles is also amazing!

Beautiful production. Vintage clothes well selected by the stylist - who looks amazing. Can you tell us where the shop/s are in London. Thanks.

Thankyou for watching, I'm really glad I had this short piece of video to upload as a glimpse of Judy's grace and talent. She was able to flood the stage with moonlight in a moment. An amazing spirit, radiant, inspiring, forever youthful - and with a wicked sense of humour too!

what spooky action in the distance of what happened about...things falling from the air, after she sang those times...so real! "I know 'cause I was there," And to whoever uploaded this you are so right! She is with "with undimmed grace and glamour."

how beautiful! I love how she speaks to sing. all the more seeping and bending are the words and her voice. yes, Jane does that too. They are different, though they reflect each other. Would have loved to been an audiance member to appluad Judy (am one now from the other side).

the final part of the poem: Promise me the stars will not forget what they have seen... and promise me you won't forget that dusty rose that grew from clumsy roots around your heart. Much Love to you Judy...

the poem (CON'D).... Promise me a second of your thoughts, one distant day, when I am cold and clammy, bruised and bloody, lost beneath the waves. Promise me the joy of crying in your name - Promise me you'll hold me when I fade into that night that never wakes. Be there when my last tomorrow breaks, and when she sets, and in your arms. In dreams regret can play no part. O Lord!

i'm quoting her grandson, Anno for her: Tomorrow saps my strength before she dawns, as you're not there - you're not born of her reflection, and the cynic in my stomach knows you never will be. Should I die here - in this ecstasy of dreams? Frozen blue/green diamonds in my thoughts, Make me a promise that you will not fade, and promise me you won't forget my name, and what I have within my chest for you.

This is awesome to find! Thank you so much for the upload! I remember reading of her singing this somewhere, and I how I was wishing I could have heard it. Oh, how beautiful and alive! I quote Peter Pan about her, she's "the sun rising, the poet dreaming...she's joy, she's youth...eternal youth!"

Thankyou, I'm really pleased we're on the same wavelength, though that wave may never reach the Hayward's concrete shore!

Yes, frogs are perfect for film, glossy, energetic and completely unselfconscious! I'm glad you liked their amphibian burlesque.

Always an extraordinary sight to witness.

You should be in the Hayward. No doubt about it.

Thankyou for your lovely comment, Judy would have been so pleased to know that you appreciated her artistry. It was her idea that I film this performance, even though it was against the club rules! Onstage and off, she was always youthful and adventurous, and made every moment special. 'Nightingale' in particular, because the lyrics were written by a lost love, meant a great deal to her.
