Queen: A Night at the Opera

From the London Coliseum, celebrating the music of Queen. Featuring singers Michael Falzon, Rachael Wooding, Peter Eldridge and Jenna Lee James, from the musical We Will Rock You.

Prepare to experience Queen's greatest hits on an epic scale with Sunday Night Is Music Night, in this special performance recorded live at the London Coliseum.

This rock and symphonic spectacular features the 成人快手 Concert Orchestra, conducted by Richard Sidwell, together with a rock band, and four incredible singers from the hit West End production of 'We Will Rock You' - Rachael Wooding, Peter Eldridge, Jenna Lee James and Michael Falzon. The concert showcases Queen's greatest songs, from the very first hit single 'Seven Seas Of Rhye' in 1974, right through to 'The Show Must Go On', the song poignantly written by Freddie Mercury when he knew he was approaching the end of his life.

With full symphonic arrangements, blended with a great rock band, this Friday Night Is Music Night special includes a celebration of the classic album, 'A Night At The Opera', and marks the 40th anniversary of 'News of the World', which features the two great anthems, 'We Are the Champions' and 'We Will Rock You'. The London Coliseum, home of English National Opera, welcomes Radio 2's Sunday Night Is Music Night for the first time, and provides the perfect setting for this special performance.

Songs include 'Killer Queen', 'Somebody To Love', 'Bohemian Rhapsody', 'We Will Rock You', 'Don't Stop Me Now' and many more, like you've never heard them before!
