Last Night of the Proms

[edit]

Someone had changed the article to claim that Britten's version of the National Anthem was played at the First Night of the Proms (or as they put it, the "Opening Night" which is not what it is known as) and also claimed that the version at the "Closing Night" (sic) last year was by Henry Wood. This is not true. I know as I listened to both concerts on the radio, but I guess on Wikipedia you need references. First Night of the Proms 2023 [1] (no National Anthem); Last Night 2023 [2] (clearly shows "arr. Britten"). JRawle (Talk) 22:21, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
