SUMMARY:The Music of James Bond (early show)
DESCRIPTION:XPERIENCE LIVE presents The Music of James Bond – performed in a stunning setting at Selby Abbey. \nFriday 31st July 2026 | Doors: 5:30pm | Show: 6:15pm–7:30pm | Last entry: 6:00pm \nFriday 31st July 2026 | Doors: 8:00pm | Show: 8:30pm–9:45pm | Last entry: 8:15pm \n\nFrom the moment the first chord strikes\, audiences are transported into the mysterious and thrilling world of James Bond. This incredible Chamber Orchestra brings the legendary music of James Bond to life in a way that is bold\, elegant and utterly unforgettable. \nThis is more than a concert – it is an orchestral tribute to one of cinema’s most iconic legacies. Across six decades\, the music of Bond has been defined by extraordinary voices: Dame Shirley Bassey\, whose soaring performances of “Goldfinger”\, “Diamonds Are Forever” and “Moonraker” set the gold standard; Adele\, whose Oscar-winning “Skyfall” became an instant classic; Sam Smith’s haunting “Writing’s On the Wall”; and Billie Eilish’s powerful and poignant “No Time To Die”. These songs – and the artists behind them – have given Bond its unmistakable sound. \nPerformed by world-class musicians and vocalists\, every note echoes the sophistication of the James Bond universe. The sound of sweeping strings and bold brass stirs images of high-speed car chases\, exotic escapes and unforgettable encounters. The sultry tones of the singers evoke Bond’s timeless glamour. \nThis is a night where music and cinema intertwine\, where audiences don’t just listen to – they feel it\, they live it. \nThe Great British Film Orchestra is dedicated to celebrating the soundtracks that have defined the golden age of cinema and beyond. With each performance\, we honour the artistry of composers and storytellers who have given us moments that transcend the screen. \nSo\, don your finest attire\, raise a glass and prepare for an evening of breathtaking music and the unmistakable thrill of James Bond. \nDisclaimer: This concert is an independent tribute production. It is not affiliated with\, sponsored by\, or endorsed by any rights holders of the James Bond franchise. Titles are used solely to describe the musical programme to audiences. \n\nAccessibility Tickets \nIf you are looking to purchase accessible tickets… \nAnd you do NOT require a wheelchair space\, please go ahead and purchase the tickets you would like. Then email us with an image of either your blue badge or PIP form and we will be able to process a refund for your carers ticket. – he***@**************co.uk \nIf you do require a wheelchair space\, please purchase the seat with a wheelchair icon on\, along with the carers seat next to it. \n\nSome of our concerts take place in stunning historic spaces such as cathedrals\, minsters and abbeys. These beautiful buildings were not originally designed for modern amplified sound\, so you may notice a more atmospheric sound\, shaped by centuries-old stone and architecture which may differ slightly from a traditional theatre. What these spaces offer instead is an unforgettable atmosphere and the chance to enjoy live music in truly extraordinary surroundings – all while helping to support the preservation of these heritage landmarks. \nTo purchase tickets please use the following link – https://boxoffice.xperiencelive.co.uk/events/xperiencelive/2113043 \n  \nThere will be a licensed bar at this event.  Payment can be made by cash or card.
