Blue Mountains Concert Society: Ian Cooper’s Afternoon at the Proms Spectacular
16 November 2025 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm AEDT

Featuring Proms favourites, this grand musical extravaganza is hosted by Australia’s much-loved violin maestro, Ian Cooper, as he pays homage to the iconic BBC Proms at London’s prestigious Royal Albert Hall. Joined by his Blue Danube Orchestra and guest Opera Australia vocalists, Cooper also tips his hat to the Royal Edinburgh Military Tattoo with the Governor Macquarie Memorial Pipe Band. Brace yourself for an unforgettable experience filled with enchantment and splendour!
Bring your friends, wave those flags high, and make some noise as we come together for an afternoon of merriment and celebration at the most exhilarating concert of the year.
Watch as the curtain rises and the stage comes alive with The Sound of Music, The Toreador Song from Bizet’s Carmen, Schubert’s soul-stirring Ave Maria, and a stirring collaboration between marching band and orchestra performing anthems including Scotland the Brave, Amazing Grace, March of the British Grenadiers, and the majestic Highland Cathedral.
