    Many in the UK would rather this was the National Anthem.
    The annual UK flag waving occasion. All the flags you see in London are for the tourists.
    They are in the Royal Albert Hall in London.
    The hall is named after Queen Victoria's husband (Queen from 1837 - 1901).
    If I'm right, this music is used at college graduations in the USA.
    Those drums are called kettle drums

    The flowers the orchestra members wear are carnations. The tune is Elgar's Pomp & Circumstance, including the Song 'Land of Hope & Glory', a British patriotic anthem. The people are in the park across the road from the main venue, the Royal Albert Hall. They are Kettle Drums. It's a very expensive gig.

    In 1905 Sir Edward Elgar received an hon. D. Mus. from Yale. He attended and an orchestra played some of his music, including Pomp & Circumstance March No. 1. Yale used the 'big tune' at their next graduation, and the next. Then all the other Ivy League universities copied it. Then other universities and colleges - and now it's even called the Graduation Song sometimes in the US. In reality it was written in 1900 and later used in celebrations surrounding the coronation of Edward VII in 1902. And it's dedicated to a German friend of Elgar's.

      We are an island nation so we have a strong maritime heritage. The bobbing up and down starts earlier during this annual concert when British sea shanties (songs which sailors used to sing while hauling up sails or raising a ship's anchor) are played, particularly during the Sailor's Hornpipe (where the orchestra and audience playfully compete to see who can play or bob faster than the other). It's now a long-standing tradition at this event.

    Your reaction style is very talkative, and visually oriented, more that auditively. Which in my opinion lends itself better to things like movies than musical performances. However, I completely respect it. If I didn't want to listen to you talk all over the music, it's my own choice to stop watching. I get that. So no harm meant 😊 A lot of this music - performed live even - is just a moment to be taken and immersed in, rather than spoken over, is all I'm trying to say.

    The BBC also does what it calls a simulcast.
    Where it hosts outside viewing events, in every UK nation, broadcasting a live stream from all of the events.
    Hyde Park (was the one you were viewing, and saying "Oh that's ouside"), Edinburgh, Cardiff, Belfast. (it switches these in an out of the TV broadcast throughout the night).
    So each of the Capitals of our nations.
    The crowds are enormous, and everyone has a good time.
    Everyone is welcome, the only condition is you must enjoy good music. Oh and national bring a flag if you want.

    Just a side note that recently the BBC has tried to remove these songs as they are trying to remove being proud in the history of the uk. Its a far left ideology that pervades that organisation and has caused great harm to them from falsifying news items to outright bias over brexit. They are by royal charter supposed to be non political and this shift to the left has led to mass cancellation of the licence fee by the public. We still pay it as we watch sport but if we didnt i would cancel to

    The BBC Proms is an eight-week summer season of daily orchestral classical music concerts and other events held annually, predominantly in the Royal Albert Hall in central London. Robert Newman founded The Proms in 1895. Since 1927, the BBC has organized and broadcast The Proms. Each season consists of concerts in the Royal Albert Hall, chamber music concerts at Cadogan Hall (or occasionally other venues), additional Proms in the Park events across the UK on the Last Night of the Proms and associated educational and children's events. The season is a significant event in British culture and in classical music. Traditionally you are expected to be quite during the concerts except for last night first a classical piece is played where the tradition of being quite is observed but after that is the finally usually Consisting of Land of hope and glory, Jerusalem rule Britania and the sailor's hornpipe where all the rules go out the window heckling blowing horns party poppers and ratels are used and of course joining in the singing.

    I like to think of the proms as a British way to celebrate patriotism, which ever country you are from.
    The dias alone has many flags from nations that have nothing to do with the UK. Poland, Spain, Germany (I think the Union Flag was the only UK flag on it)

The last night of the proms happens every year in The Royal Albert Hall and Hyde Park in London, there are also performances in each of the other home nations. Many people travel from all over the world to watch these performances and many display their nations flags which is never discouraged. My personal favourite is Nimrod. 🇬🇧

      Sort of. It's Pomp & Circumstance, march No. 1 in D (the first of five marches he wrote between 1901 and 1930). It's not part of the Enigma Variations (you may be thinking of 'Nimrod' - which is). Interestingly, both P & C No, 1 and Nimrod were dedicated to Germans.
