It's that time of year again when the Royal Albert Hall gets properly patriotic, and you can't have the Last Night without Wood's rousing sea-shanty mashup firing everyone up. There's something lovely about a tune that's been rattling around for over a century, connecting us to Victorian celebrations and all that naval nostalgia. It's the musical equivalent of bunting and proper pageantry. If you're planning to tune in, just know you're hearing a proper historical artefact, not some throwaway modern composition, and that's the kind of anchor point the Proms does better than anywhere else.
