Introducing 'Fires' Gary mentioned that "Procol Harum has
always been an anti-war band (War is not Healthy!), and this song is
dedicated to the people of Syria – especially the children – who right now
are suffering a lot. Sadly some Procol lyrics do not lose their topicality
and importance."

'Surprising not to see David Firman as conductor of The Danish
National Concert Orchestra and Choir,' writes Thomas Raa Olsen, 'but
fortunately Henrik Vagn Christensen is familiar with the Orchestra. They have
made several recordings together. I am sure that the audience was well pleased
with Henrik as a substitute. Band and orchestra if possible in even better shape
than the first two concerts. They are simply made for each other.' The picture
shows the excellent violin solo in Grand Hotel. |
