The Infinity team bring you news on your favourite TV shows and movie franchises…

FOR YOUR EARS ONLY If you love the Bond themes, and let’s face it who doesn’t, Sam Smith’s one excepted, we reckon, then you need to make a date in your diary to wrap your lug-holes round The James Bond Concert Spectacular on Sunday 15th October 2023, hosted by David Zaritsky (The Bond Experience) with special guests: Kristina Wayborn, David and Tony Meyer (Octopussy) and Martine Beswick (From Russia With Love and Thunderball).

The James Bond Concert Spectacular by Q The Music Show was formed in 2004 as the world’s first dedicated tribute to the music of 007. They have gone on to establish themselves amongst every Bond fan club around the world as the finest performances of the songs since the originals.

In 2017 they were asked to perform at Sir Roger Moore’s official memorial event at Pinewood Studios in front of the who’s who of the British film and TV industry including Sir Michael Caine, Dame Joan Collins and David Walliams. In 2019 they performed at an event with George Lazenby: the 50th anniversary event for On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, held at Piz Gloria in the Swiss Alps.

The show features all your favourite Bond songs such as Goldfinger, Diamonds Are Forever, Live and Let Die and Nobody Does It Better, performed with the most authentic and dedicated arrangements to the originals ever heard, but with such passion, enthusiasm and flair: you can’t help but be wowed. This show will also focus on three huge anniversaries: From Russia With Love (60th), Live and Let Die (50th) and Octopussy (40th) with musical tributes to the scores, as well as hearing memories from special guests who appeared in the films.

The musicians are taken from the UK’s other leading orchestras, sessions and West End shows, and combined with well-known fan influencer David Zaritsky of The Bond Experience Channel who will guide you through the concert. With stunning singing, exquisite musicianship, an informative compère, a programme of iconic tunes and some iconic memories from some of the cast, it really is a night guaranteed of the highest quality. Don’t miss it. The event takes place at the O2, 205 Peninsula Square, London. Tickets are available now from axs.com.
