Can You Feel The Love Tonight was released in 1994 and features as one of The Lion King’s most defining musical moments. After selling over 11 million copies worldwide it has endured as one of Elton John’s most popular love songs.
BSO Voices, the Orchestra’s Southampton-based community choir, has met online and rehearsed from home since the UK entered lockdown in March. After sharing a performance of Over the Rainbow, in April, the choir looked to the song for their second project.
Originally planned for their summer programme Can You Feel The Love Tonight, which celebrates love and friendship, was a fitting tribute to distant family and friends.
The work was arranged and conducted by Pete Harrison, accompaniment by Teresa Barlow, edited by Alex Rimell, and sign singing by Katherine Mount.
