Question for you in UK, What are ''The Proms''? [QueenConcerts]

doremi 28.07.2005 12:01	All the UK music press I read keeps talking about the Proms and reviewing them. In the USA, that's our High School Senior Year Dance, but obviously, in the UK, it's some significant national music event from what I can see...of a classical nature? Please fill me in as it sounds interesting.

The BBC Proms is an annual music festival running from mid-July to mid-September and comprising over seventy Prom concerts." Barry, Thanks so much! This sounds like a wonderful Festival. Have you or anyone on QZ ever gone?
