      @@hoof2001 For the English, it hits different for what it represents to us. Our nation, our identity. The sacrifice of life, given by those in their duty to us.

    As a Briton in mourning at the loss of our great Queen, thank you for tributes like this. Even though this wasn't uploaded for her majesty, and was done so years prior to her passing, it's touching to see our cousins from across the globe sharing and practicing great music like this. Just like in 2001, when 9/11 saw thousands of Americans stranded in London and UK, the British guards performed your nations anthem in solidarity with your loss and the people's trauma. For me, this returns the favour.

    I had this played at my fathers funeral. It was his favorite. They play this every year at the cenotaph in london on remembrance day. It echoes around Whitehall, very moving.

      It symbolises the British peoples acknowledgement of the debt we owe to the generation who lived and fought through the world wars and brings tears tomany eyes. Awesome music.

    Look like several members of the orchestra were about to burst into tears. Amazing how Nimrod can do that.

    A very good Youth Ochestra, but watch / listen to, this wonderful music, as played by the Radio de France Philharmonique, conducted by Mikko Franck. on YT. Only the Best. In my opinion of course.

      Thomas Smith that’s how many European orchestras are arranged, so I’m sure Pappano ultimately made the decision for one reason or another. Really depends on the conductor. Some like the lower sounds in the center

      I've known Enigma Variations since I was 10 ( 65 now ), and have owned maybe four recordings of it. At no point in this performance of Nimrod did I even get a hint of it being rushed - not once.
